The purpose of the Ethics of Human Development Workbook is to help you identify what you should know and doin order to serve both yourself and the various organizations of which you are a part. One of the key assumptions of The Ethics of Human Development Training Program is that the ethical path is the path most likely to serve both you and your organization(s) over the long run.The workbook is one part of The Ethics of Human Development Training Program. However, the Workbook can be used on its own. It presents and explains the ethics of human development and it invites a close review of one's relationship with whatever organization is under consideration.Individuals interested in applying the ethics of human development to their work-life will find the Workbook useful, as will organizational personnel and trainers interested in furthering ethical cultures in organizations.

The Ethics of Human Development -- Quick Guide provides the reader with ready access to the ethics of human development. The ethics of human development could be called the ethics of right livelihood, the ethics of teamwork and collaboration, or the ethics of personal responsibility. By whatever name, these ethics offer an elaborated work ethic, one that serves the development of both the individual who embraces it and the organization(s) of which he or she is a part.

The purpose of this book is twofold: first, to teach "profound relaxation," an extremely useful skill and for most people, an easy one to learn; and second, to discuss "differential relaxation", the relaxation of everyday life.The first two chapters focus on profound relaxation. Their purpose is to teach you to relax deeply-body and mind-in a single session of fifteen to twenty minutes. Like meditation, profound relaxation is considered an anti-stress response as it leads to an overall calming or quieting of the nervous system. In addition to profound relaxation, this book-beginning with Chapter 3-introduces the notion of differential relaxation, what might be called the "at ease with yourself" mode of relaxation. Differential relaxation is not so much a skill as it is a way of being and doing. It means: Using only the tension and energy required to perform a given act properly, not over-doing and not forcing. Perhaps the most important question posed by this book is: How do you deal with the issues, situations, and factors that bring tension and anxiety into your life, the factors that threaten your wellbeing? This book provides exercises for identifying those factors and a strategy for addressing them. However, there are no quick fixes. Wellbeing is a journey. This book will help you with the path forward. Relaxation and the Pursuit of Wellbeing is designed for use by individuals, but can also be of use to therapists, counselors, and trainers when working with individuals or groups interested in reducing the tension and anxiety operating in their lives.

In Right Livelihood, a young man learns from his beloved Uncle the ethics of right livelihood. The young man learns how to work in accord with what his Uncle calls human logic, the logic by which we educate, mature and enlighten ourselves. To work in accord with human logic, contends the Uncle, is to serve both the workplace and the individual over the long run. Economist E.F. Schumacher said that work exists for the refinement of character. Right Livelihood presents twelve ethics that together constitute an elaborated work ethic. When embraced, these ethics further the refinement character while also furthering effective and creative involvement with the organization or workplace. This small book is ideal for high school seniors, college and university students, organizational development specialists, human resource personnel and others interested in how best to operate in the workplace. Lest there be any confusion, however, the ethics discussed in Right Livelihood are not only for those about to enter the world of work, but also for those well established in their work life.

This book tells the story of Warren (Armstrong) Jabali, a remarkably gifted person who played basketball in Kansas City in the early 1960s. It does not tell the entire story of his life but it does tell the story of his career, and to a considerable extent, the story of his intellectual life and the impact he had on others.After high school, Warren starred at Wichita State University where, at 6'2", he ranks among its all-time leaders in points, rebounds and assists. In the American Basketball Association (ABA), he was Rookie of the Year, four times an All-Star, and Most Valuable Player in the 1973 ABA All-Star game. Jabali, in Swahili, means a large, conspicuous rock. It is the name Warren adopted in announcing his commitment to the African-American community. His principal concern from the time he left college was, in his words, "the standing of African-American people in the human community."This book is an effort to keep alive his memory in the Kansas City area and beyond. It is rare that a young man in high school so electrifies a community. Rare, also, that he should go on a journey that--through trails and tribulations--rendered him a hero to so many.
