Spirit
at Work
2nd Thursday (monthly), 12-1 pm
SF Chamber Conference Room
235 Montgomery Street, 12th Floor |
Spirit at Work is a monthly
brown-bag lunch series featuring an informal conversation about ways to
incorporate spirituality and awareness into work, business or profession.
Open to Chamber members and non-members alike, this program is run by the
volunteer efforts of Chamber members. This regular noontime meeting – held
at the Chamber offices the second Thursday of each month - draws individuals
from the San Francisco area’s rich diversity of businesses, professions,
religions, philosophies, and spiritual paths. There is no fee to attend.
There are no pre-scheduled speakers and no specific topics set in advance,
so everyone who attends has the opportunity to share their thoughts, ideas
and questions. The meeting begins with a few minutes of silence, followed
by brief introductions. Each month, an interesting and thought provoking
discussion unfolds based on the interests and ideas of those who have shown
up for that day’s meeting. Many who attend say they return to work renewed,
refreshed, and with a different perspective.
Featured in "Megatrends 2010: The Rise of Conscious Capitalism",
by Patricia Aburdene, this brown bag meeting is highlighted in the coverage
of “seven trends that will transform how you work, live and invest”. The
chapter devoted to the fourth trend, “Spirituality in Business”, begins
with a description of this meeting, then ends with several pages on what
makes it so successful, and how others might take this model and replicate
it where they live and work.

and Debra Mugnani Monroe, who co-founded and have run this program continuously
since 1997.
