Description
The Business Secrets of the Trappist Monks by August Turak has been an unconventional business best seller. What makes the Trappist Monks successful? The short answer is that the monks have discovered an amazing secret: "It is in our own self-interest to forget our self-interest." A Trappist monastery is required to be self-sufficient, just like every successful business. Trappists are world famous for many products, e.g. beer. If the Trappists do not sell their goods, they do not eat. The Trappists have learned many lessons the hard way that are effective for every business, and have honed their business model for the past 350 years. This seminar will discuss the key lessons that are applicable to any business.
