Descriere
More Magic of Metaphor explores the notion of leadership in its widest sense. Whether you lead in business, education, coaching, sports, health, parenting, or any other context this book offers insights into the many aspects of this complex, fascinating, and demanding role that we are all, from time to time, called upon to fulfil. Containing over sixty stories from a wide range of traditions and eras, the book explores them in the context of two great contemporary models for understanding ourselves and others with deeper awareness and compassion. Ken Wilber s Integral 4-Quadrant Theory of Everything model maps out the four great territories in which human beings operate and demonstrates the importance of bringing them together in holistic and integral ways. The Spiral Dynamics model offers a profound and elegant way to make sense of how people think, how they are motivated, what kind of leaders they prefer, how they learn, how they change and how development occurs in individuals, groups, organisations, nation states and the world generally. Yet the book not only offers profound insights into the human condition, it also manages to be fun, light, and amusing. It is a book for bed time reading as much as for serious study. For anyone fascinated by the complex demands of leadership, and its attendant skills of relationship building, influencing, motivating, and contextual analysis, this book makes a very valuable addition to the library.
