"Bestselling author of Who Do We Want to Be gives visionary leaders the tools to create organizations that foster generosity, creativity, and kindness in a chaotic world. We are living in chaotic and contentious times. Tensions between people are reaching dangerously hateful proportions. Margaret Wheatley calls on leaders to resist, to forge communities that protect people from the destructive dynamics so prevalent today and rediscover and reawaken our common humanity. To become what she calls Warriors for the Human Spirit. Pushing back against the prevailing culture of chaos requires leaders to work on themselves and their organizations-to do inner and outer work. Wheatley offers practices to help leaders: Calm the mind and avoid impulsive reactions; Communicate honestly and fearlessly; Become aware of the stories they tell themselves that shape their view of the world; Develop their organization's capacity for self-organizing; Conduct after-action reviews that replace blaming with learning; Leverage diversity to provide more perspectives on the critical problems of today. Sane leadership is the unshakable confidence that people can be generous, creative, and kind. The leader's work, Wheatley insists, is to create the conditions for those capacities to manifest in meaningful work, to establish islands of sanity in these seas of delusion"--

"I believe we can change the world if we start talking to one another again." With this simple declaration, Margaret Wheatley proposes that people band together with their colleagues and friends to create the solutions for real social change, both locally and globally, that are so badly needed. Such change will not come from governments or corporations, she argues, but from the ageless process of thinking together in conversation. "Turning to One Another" encourages this process.

Unsere zerstreute und hektische Zeit benötigt eine neue Form von Gesprächen und Meetings: Circle. Diese Methode ist mehr als nur eine andere Anordnung der Stühle. Im Kreis sind alle Teilnehmer Führende, definierte Positionen werden rotierend wahrgenommen und nach Bedarf eingesetzt. Dies schafft einen Raum der Konzentration, in dem wir mit anderen, mit uns und mit unserer Intuition in Kontakt kommen und in dem wir aus unserer Mitte sprechen und agieren. Im Circle hören wir ungewöhnlich gut zu, denken mit hoher Achtsamkeit gemeinsam nach und lernen voneinander. Die Methode unterstützt dabei, komplexe Themen angemessen zu bearbeiten, zu guten Lösungen zu kommen und dabei zu einer Gemeinschaft zusammenzuwachsen. Circle ist daher ein wegweisendes Werkzeug sowohl für Moderatoren und Berater als auch für alle, die Gruppen und Organisationen führen. Die international bekannten Autorinnen Christina Baldwin und Ann Linnea haben über zwei Jahrzehnte hinweg die Methode »Circle« zu einem Werkzeug entwickelt, das sowohl in Workshops und Konferenzen als auch in den alltäglichen Meetings von Führungskräften eingesetzt werden kann.
