WHAT'S IN THIS NEWSLETTER NEWS CHERISHED MESSAGES RECEIVED: Response to LOVE THE HIGHEST VIRTUE in the Ancient Wisdoms booklet: What a delightful and moving article to end my week. Some of the stories are both moving and heart-wrenching. It leads me to want to become a better version of myself and double down on 'love' as a core value at work. Richard Sheridan, CEO, Chief Storyteller - Menlo Innovations, Author Joy, Inc From Edgar Schein, corporate culture guru: Dear Mr. Williams--I have just finished your wonderful gift on the Internet about Ancient Wisdom. It is a great collection that has put in one document so many separate thoughts and insights that are scattered in our literature. I love all the stories and quotations that you provide. My own efforts along these lines with many stories are in my recent book Humble Consulting (2016) and will be elaborated in the book I am doing with my son which will be called Humble Leadership. I would love to meet you sometime and discuss the dilemma of how to get more of these ideas implemented in the business world that still operates by a strong culture of competitive individualism and bureaucracy that creates unnecessary distance between people SACAP Festival Talks on 25th and 26th May give away the secrets of our Conversations That Count process: view details Don’t leave your booking too late: WISDOM RETREAT 3rd and 4th October in Santa Fe New Mexico (My talk subject spans higher purpose, spirituality at work, communities of love in the workplace .... visit website The Retreat will be preceded by a full day workshop covering the Conversations that Count process (Contact me about special discount arrangements) NEW
