Wisdom of the Animals: A Nature-led Journey into the Heart of Transformational Leadership

by Patrick J. Bishop

Overview

"My dog doesn't lay awake at night anxious about playing catch tomorrow."

Wisdom of the Animals is a wild, nature-inspired adventure in leadership. From birds to bats, owls to ants, turtles, butterflies, ibex and big cats, every story and colorful spread will capture your heart and imagination. From there, Dr. Bishop uses each animal's unique attributes to illustrate sound leadership principles. He skillfully guides the reader, using Richard Rohr's framework of order, disorder, and reorder to navigate the journey of transformational leadership from the first half of life into the second half of life. Along the way, you'll fall in love with the many fun and quirky traits of our untamed relations. In the end, you'll agree, animals have a lot to teach us on our journey to become fully human.
