Margaret Wheatley, Ed.D. began caring about the world’s peoples in 1966 as a Peace Corps volunteer in post-war Korea. As a consultant, senior-level advisor, teacher, speaker, and formal leader, she has worked on all continents (except Antarctica) with all levels, ages, and types of organizations, leaders, and activists. Her work now focuses on developing and supporting leaders globally as Warriors for the Human Spirit. Margaret has written ten books, including the classic Leadership and the New Science, and been honored for her pathfinding work by many professional associations, universities, and organizations.
She answers the question of “What Could Possibly Go Right?” with thoughts including:
The idea of life affirming leadership, “on what cultivates life, what cultivates growth” and “adapting to circumstances”.
The call to be “of dedicated service at the local level where we can still create good lives… embodiments of good human beings, which is the ultimate gift that we can offer.”
The need to “get our egos out of the way” and move to a “place of right action and right work”
The question of seeing “what's needed here, and then, am I the right person to contribute at this time?”
The idea that “as you're out in the world doing this work and learning what it means to be of service, I do believe you find the teachings that support you, and maybe the teachers as well”
