The social responsibility of a company causes its management to think more broadly in therms of 'we' rather than 'I'.

The article starts with charting the history of spiritual counseling at CTU in Prague and searches for an optimal tool for the pastoral care of university students.

On the other hand, contributions of each author point out the fact that the essence of a university is to lead its teachers and students to synthetic thinking. Such a thinking then necessarily leads to a morally-spiritual connotation. The university must become a place of a spiritual and moral renewal of a nation. That is as a matter of fact its indisputable mission from the very beginning.
