White Lotus – A Powerful Symbol of Resilience

There are many eastern interpretations for the white lotus flower.  A white lotus grows from the mud and murkiness, into a beautiful bloom rising above the water’s surface.  Some say it means purification, and others surmise its meaning to be one of “getting above it all” as in getting out of the mud, growing and gaining  self awareness – personally and or professionally.  In the spirituality of Buddhism, a white lotus is seen as a sign of good fortune, and pure intentions.

White Lotus Consulting Group combines decades of experience in the area of Organizational Development, Effective Change Management, Strategic Human Resource Management, and the implementation of Client Focused Standards and measures.
