The Art of Possibility: Transforming Professional and Personal Life

by Benjamin and Rosamund Stone Zander

The Art of Possibility: Transforming Professional and Personal Life Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Presenting twelve breakthrough practices for bringing creativity into all human endeavors, The Art of Possibility is the dynamic product of an extraordinary partnership. The Art of Possibility combines Benjamin Zander's experience as conductor of the Boston Philharmonic and his talent as a teacher and communicator with psychotherapist Rosamund Stone Zander's genius for designing innovative paradigms for personal and professional fulfillment.

The authors' harmoniously interwoven perspectives provide a deep sense of the powerful role that the notion of possibility can play in every aspect of life. Through uplifting stories, parables, and personal anecdotes, the Zanders invite us to become passionate communicators, leaders, and performers whose lives radiate possibility into the world.

Synopsis:

A harmoniously interwoven collection of perspectives that provides a deep sense of the powerful role that the notion of possibility can play in every aspect of life, "The Art of Possibility" is "as applicable in the workplace as it is in an intimate relationship" ("The Boston Globe").
