Kamm looks beneath the obvious advances of the shimmering new technology-centered economy. He finds increasing evidence of substantial emotional and spiritual pain across America, not just among those who have benefited least, but also among those who have benefited most. In a realm of blurred boundaries and vanished time, business people and their spouses are negotiating away central elements of their existence, most notably the sweet enterprise of parenting. Parenting calls us to live at depth, but we cannot live at depth when we live at speed. Why are we so easily caught up in the flash and rush of The Information Age? Why don't we hold our ground against its momentum? Why do we seem to lack the vision, strength and determination to truly structure our lives around what we espouse as our most deeply cherished values – God, family, friendship, community – rather than around work? American parents are spending dramatically less quality time with their children than was the case thirty years ago. Why have we allowed this? Why have we gone so far off track? What are the dangers? How do we master this new world and put speed in the service of depth? Drawing on extensive experience in the front lines of business, Robert H. Kamm asks and answers all of these questions in a highly readable exploration of myth, the human psyche and workplace practices. His profound insight and unusual consulting style have already touched thousands of individuals and numerous companies. Bottom lines have thickened. Market share has increased. Customer satisfaction ratings have been catapulted. The long-term prospects of businesses have been girded while simultaneously honoring and supporting, as never before, the personal and family needs of the individuals that comprise them. the superman syndrome is bound to become a household phrase and touchstone for those fighting to bend the new technology to help them become real and present parents without sacrificing the joy of creative work.
