While her previous work has focused on knowledge management, with Knowledge Mindfulness, she offers an expansive new approach, applying cutting-edge research from the worlds of business, economics, psychology, neuroscience, and the social sciences to reveal more holistic, effective, and humane ways of generating, internalizing, synthesizing, and actioning knowledge.

Dr. Marouf's book invites readers to see knowledge as a dynamic system grounded in deep connections between people and anchored in the full richness of the human experience. The result is a vision of knowledge as an emergent system that derives power from complex networks of dynamic interconnections between ourselves and others. Chapter by chapter Dr. Marouf shows how mindfully enriching and deepening these connections makes it possible to radically elevate the way knowledge flows through our lives and through the organizations we lead.

"Knowledge Mindfulness can be seen as a framework and a practice that focuses on the dynamic relationships between knowledge, self, and the outside world to drive more enriching success," Dr. Marouf said. "It enables us to consciously and continuously expand and evolve our knowledge and thereby make smarter decisions to drive both tangible change in the world and intangible fulfillment in ourselves. When you live and lead with Knowledge Mindfulness, you can operate more purposefully and achieve more meaningful and sustainable success—both for yourself and for those around you."
