What does it take to develop a sense of community in today’s productivity-driven workplace? What models do we have for re-creating an environment that we once took for granted? What processes and priorities can we establish so we can have work situations where we feel connected, supported and safe – especially given the challenges of our time?

As individuals at all levels in organizational hierarchies experience a sense of disconnectedness from one another in the pursuit of the “bottom line”, a yearning has developed among the populations of companies and other workplaces – a yearning which originates from the need to feel a part of a community. This fundamental human need to feel connected to others is driving good people out of organizations – or worse yet – into unhealthy lifestyles should they resign themselves to endure the separateness they feel at work and seek ways to “numb out” the pain.

A comprehensive collection from the foremost thinkers in this field, Community Building promises a greater understanding of the need for community methodologies for renewing spirit and our ability to learn together. It includes examples of organizations which are presently developing climates of community in the workplace and is a rich resource for anyone seeking interconnectedness with one’s coworkers, corporate culture, and all other stakeholders in the enterprise.
