<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In this peerless book, Whyte shows how the language of prophecy, poetry, and enlightenment gives voice to the most creative--yet hidden--desires. He shows that the best way to respond to the current call for creativity in organizational life is to overcome habitual fear and reticence and bring full, passionate, creative human soils, with all their urgencies and unnamed longings, right inside the office.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>"With this insightful book, David Whyte offers people in corporate life an opportunity to reach into the forgotten and ignored creative life (their own and the corporation's) and literally water their souls with it. The result is a very well written book that can truly heal."--Clarissa Pinkola Estés, PH.D., author of <i>Women Who Run With the Wolves</i> and <i>The Gift of Story</i></b><br><b> </b><br><b>Find professional and personal fulfilment through the poetry of both classic and modern masters--now revised and updated</b> <p/><i>Has your work lost its meaning?
