What Does Poetry Have To Do With Leadership? "Walking Meditation"


Listen Later

In this episode of "What Does Poetry Have To Do With Leadership?", JMJ consultants Kathryn Schindler and Kelli Bettenhausen explore "Walking Meditation" by Thich Naht Hanh, a Vietnamese Zen Buddhist monk, peace activist, and poet 

Kathryn and Kelli explore what happens when management stops talking and starts listening.  It means reversing the flow of communication. Doing a listening tour as a specific act of leadership builds connectenedness with people on the front lines. 

The poem ‘Walking Meditation’ is from the book 'Call Me By My True Names: The Collected Poems of Thich Nhat Hanh', published by Parallax Press; New Edition (August 9, 2001).  If you enjoyed the poem, and wish to purchase the book, ask for a copy wherever fine books are sold.
