The Great Growing Up: Being Responsible for Humanity's Future (2011) by John Renesch. Describes a vision for a world that works for all, aka the "New Great Dream", describes how we add legitimacy to the status quo and how we can transform our relationships with each other and our environment.

John Renesch puts forth a vision for a historic transformation for all humankind. It pictures a global future full of possibilities - a much "better future" than the one that appears most likely if we rely upon probabilities and forecasts based on existing trends. Not only that, but the author points directly to the business community as the segment of our society that can best lead the rest of the world in such an incredible transition for all humanity.

Focused on a breed of leader with a new consciousness, this book includes the writings of such visionary authors as James Autry (Love & Profit), Max DePree Leadership is an Art), Margaret Wheatley (Leadership and the New Science) and international leadership guru Warren Bennis. TV producer Norman Lear is interviewed in this book as well.

Spawned by the debate about whether there's a place for spiritual values in business, this collection contains the writings of the chief debaters: internationally-renowned management guru and bestselling author Tom Peters and Medtronic, Inc. Chairman Bill George - as well as chapters by Anita Roddick (founder, The Body Shop Int'l), One Minute Manager series creator Ken Blanchard, Angeles Arrien (author of The Four Fold Way), USC management professor Ian Mitroff and bestselling author Thomas Moore (The Care of the Soul) among others.

Best-selling authors Thomas Moore (Care of the Soul), Gary Zukav (The Seat of the Soul), Charles Handy (The Age of Unreason) and Matthew Fox (The Reinvention of Work) combine their writing talents with 21 other contributors for this collection on the spiritual renaissance in business.

With an Introduction by M. Scott Peck (The Road Less Traveled), this anthology contains 34 chapters written by such luminaries in the field of community-building as Common Cause founder John Gardner, Stanford's Michael Ray, Communitarian Amitai Etzioni, and MIT's Peter Senge. It is a rich blend of disciplines and perspectives in the field.

All 15 contributors to this collection are women, including Riane Eisler (The Chalice and the Blade). Not about women's issues but having a woman's perspective on business, this book's Introduction was written by Megatrends co-authors John Naisbitt and Patricia Aburdene.

Contains 18 essays written by a diverse group of contributing authors including former USSR president Mikhail Gorbachev, Riane Eisler (author, The Chalice and the Blade), leadership expert John O'Neil, and television genius Norman Lear. This book stresses the advantage of diversity rather than the obligation of it. As one of the authors said, "this is a book for CEOs to read, not their attorneys."

Eighteen authors come together in this collection focused on the "calling" to be an entrepreneur. Contributors include Anita Roddick, founder of The Body Shop retail chain, Marjorie Kelly, publisher/founder of Business Ethics magazine, and Greg Steltenpohl, Odwalla's founder and Chairman.
