Summary Annotation Cyr (Soceite de Developpement Economique) offers an approach to leadership drawn from mythology, philosophy, religion, ancient writings, contemporary research, and business know-how. He relates the myths of Western hunting societies and Eastern planting societies to modern-day business practices, leadership styles, and thinking about the "self." Emphasizing the complementary aspects of Eastern and Western culture, Cyr maps a path toward better leadership, enhanced business performance, and stronger communities. Annotation c.
