I recently attended my daughter’s high school graduation from a Catholic girl’s school. The salutatorian and valedictorian both talked about “love” for their fellow students, the bonds that were formed between the classmates, and their mission to take this power out into the world as graduates. I’m very spiritual but not particularly religious. In fact, the quality of education was the main deciding factor in sending daughter to the school that I did. But, I was so pleasantly struck by the fervor that these girls had in caring for one another and their fellow humans. This was a product of religious focus in their education and it made me think about all of the challenges that business professionals face in the workplace. I wondered if the practice of love was similar to a technique that I have used in business.
