Michael Bungay Stanier: Find Your Great Work
By Angela Treat Lyon on Aug 27, 2009 in - Dreaming & Daring -, - IDYRadio Show -
I had the good fortune to interview Rhodes Scholar, Michael Bungay Stanier this week.
The epitome of a Daring Deramer, Michael was studying for a law degree in his home country, Australia, and got sidetracked by his dreams in a big way, ending up living on the other side of the world.
Michael is a human tie-dyed crayon of creativity, power and forward-thinking. He spends a lot of time dreaming up ways to help businesses focus on doing more great work and less good work.
When you read his book, Find Your Great Work (available at FindYourGreatWork.com), you’ll discover why he considers doing your Great Work important both for your inner being and your business’ bottom line. I love how he relays such important information in such a light-hearted yet serious way.
Find Your Great Work is full of special ‘maps’ you can use to inch your way through the book and come out the other end knowing what your own Great Work is–if you don’t already know! He has all sorts of freebies at his site. You can get Find Your Great Work there, as well as download the special map that is not in the book.
Michael’s unique approach is helping usher in the new paradigm of global and local community co-operation, leaving behind the old push-push, win-at-all-costs mindset.
