READ: Work Like a Monk — Ancient Stillness for a Modern Working Mind

Can a 2,500-year-old monastic tradition teach us how to work and live better today?

In this episode hosted by Michelle Martin, Shoukei Matsumoto - Pure Land Buddhist monk, Harvard-trained thinker, author and Japan’s first secular monk-blogger - joins us to explore his upcoming book Work Like a Monk.

We unpack the profound link between outer order and inner clarity, and why cleaning is both a practice and a cognitive reset.

Shoukei reveals how imagined East–West conversations illuminate burnout, and how ancient guidance speaks to modern productivity.

We explore how to cultivate a “good ancestor” mindset with a long-view, and why what happens after you read a book is what can matter most.

A spacious, thoughtful dialogue for those seeking a calmer mind, a cleaner life, and a wiser way of working.

How can you flip the power dynamic at the workplace to your favour? Make your boss need you.

Do you have an abusive boss who makes your life difficult or miserable in the workplace? When it comes to confronting an abusive boss or supervisor, most of us tend to assume that we only have two choices - confrontation or avoidance. But, according to a research done by Elijah Wee, Assistant Professor of Management at Foster School of Business, University of Washington and his team, there is a third option. Victims of workplace abuse can shift the power balance to work in their favour by making their bosses or supervisors need them.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
