					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every age has its prophets who observe the movement of social, political and economic forces then project what the future might hold.  Tim Sanders&#8217; new book, <em>Saving the World at Work</em>, represents the projections of a knowledgeable and thoughtful prognosticator.   Sanders has observed the effect of recent events on the psyche of individuals. Events such as September 11, CEO scandals, and the environmental crisis are traumas that have shocked most individuals into re-examining the values they once embraced. Although the recent financial and economic shocks came post-publication, they bolster Sanders’ case.<span id="more-392"></span></p>
<p>In his book, Sanders identifies this change &#8212; this new set of values being adopted &#8212; as a social responsibility revolution.  He sees the social responsibility revolution as people caring for more than profit alone.  They care for employees, the community and the environment.</p>
<p>He also describes how he sees the social responsibility revolution evolving.  The true believers, or “Saver Soldiers” as Sanders calls them, are the change agents of this move to look beyond the bottom line.  He articulates how you can become a Saver Soldier through assessing your realm of influence and then executing the long list of recommended actions that he lays out near the end of the book.</p>
<p>I highly recommend reading this book. We live in a period of dramatic upheaval.  The mindset and values of Modernity are giving way to a Post-Modern perspective.  &#8220;Saving the World at Work&#8221; helps clarify what many people feel. It also describes a likely scenario for the future that everyone will benefit from knowing about and helping bring to fruition.</p>
