The Wisdom of Shaolin

How to Turn Weaknesses into Strengths

The Monks of the Shaolin monastery are famous for their martial arts - not least because of movie legends like Jackie Chan and Jet Li. Yet the wisdom of the Shaolin lies not in spectacular action, but in paying more attention to one's own weaknesses in order to turn them into strengths. Asia specialist and management expert Werner Schwanfelder introduces us to the principles and wisdoms of the Shaolin philosophy, shows how we can use these in the workplace in the West and what valuable, helpful ideas we can draw from them.
