Sinopse

What is Consumerism
 
The term "consumerism" refers to a social and economic system in which the aspirations of many persons involve the acquisition of commodities and services that go beyond those that are required for survival or for the customary displays of status. The concept of consumerism has been present in a variety of societies throughout history. The contemporary concept of consumerism can be traced back to Western Europe before to the Industrial Revolution and began to gain popular acceptance around the year 1900. The Theory of the Leisure Class was a book written by Thorstein Veblen that was published in 1899. It was a book about consumerism that investigated the broad ideals and economic institutions that emerged along with the prevalent "leisure time" at the beginning of the 20th century. "Veblen views the activities and spending habits of this leisure class in terms of conspicuous and vicarious consumption and waste," he writes in the book. Not to be confused with utility or usefulness, both are concerned with the presentation of one's status.

    Think. Act. Lead.
    It seems simple enough. But understanding your desired impact and how it fits into a larger picture, connecting your work to others and finding new collaborators, and bringing those collaborators together and moving them in a unified direction is never easy. 
    
    Governments, businesses, and nonprofits all have unique approaches and ideas that many of us learn through our work. Yet, we rarely consider the skills needed to create and maintain the partnerships between them. Most of us learn those skills through trial, error, and often, failure. Worse, we typically stay in our self-reinforcing silos, sharing perspectives and frustrations with like-minded people, limiting our vision of what our work can become. By partnering with other sectors, we combine and adapt approaches to solve complex problems, and leaders in any industry can create large-scale change.
    
    Cleveland Justis and Daniel Student share a road map for effective partnerships that increase impact and profitability. Using real-life examples and practice exercises, the authors teach how to acquire and use skills to solve complex problems and propel your organization forward by combining a multitude of perspectives, split into three sections:
    
    • Think Like a System
    • Act Like a Network
    • Lead Like a Movement
    
    It’s time to get out of our silos. Don’t lead alone.

    One-third of our waking lives is spent at work. Work is where we make culture and come into contact with our world. Work is central to God's mission to redeem souls, systems, and structures. And God works through our work to bring hope to the brokenness and fallenness of our surrounding culture.
    The gospel of Jesus Christ is good news for the world, and that includes the transformation of our ordinary work into a sacred calling. Ross Chapman and Ryan Tafilowski show how work is a way to love God, serve our neighbors, and demonstrate the gospel. With a broader understanding of God's work in the world, we are able to engage our daily work as part of how God makes all things new.
    This guide invites you to reflect on the meaning and purpose of your life's work and to transform your work into service to those around you.
