Frances Hesselbein, Marshall Goldsmith and Sarah McArthur
Work Is Love Made Visible
A Collection of Essays About the Power of Finding Your Purpose from the World’s Greatest Thought Leaders
Wiley, 2018
What's inside?
Thirty distinguished thinkers discuss how their vision of the world shapes their identity and their work.
Recommendation
This book’s origin stems from a question that editor Frances Hesselbein asked her colleague Sarah McArthur, “What is it you see when you look out the window that is visible but not yet seen?” The book’s three editors – including well-known management author, Marshall Goldsmith – suggest that it’s time to think about how you see the world and how would you like it to be. They asked 30 distinguished thinkers to answer this question and to discuss their vision of the world, and how it shapes their identity and their work. Each contributing essayist offers a personal answer. Their answers – and perhaps yours – seem to have a lot to do with recognizing your purpose in life.
