Asogomi is taken from the Japanese word sogomi meaning masterful presence, something very much needed in our leaders today. For the first time in history, humanity stands at a crucial crossroads today. Facing pending calamities in our natural resources as well as from our own innate violence, we can no longer afford to ignore the fact that each and every one of us belongs to the planetary community that is planet Earth ... and that, for the sake of the generations that are to follow us, each and every one us us must lead into the future. Accepting our roles as citizens of planet Earth requires all of us to transform ourselves in ways that allow us to express sogomifrom the core of our beings.
Founded in 2003, here at Asogomi Publishing International we strive to embody our values by leading our publishing company in a method consistent with those values. At the center of our approach is embodied servant leadership, which we describe as accepting the responsibility to operate our company in ways that benefit all.
At Asogomi Publishing International, we're not out to publish the next big blockbuster. We have bigger plans: we're out to change the world.
