sometimes, all a person needs is a little perspective
Andrews, Andy
2009
An old man named Jones shares his perspectives about life with Andy a younger man under the rubric of "noticing." Jones has a gift for seeing what most people miss as he walks quietly through a coastal town, and concludes that most of us are placed right where we are supposed to be. Contains a reader's guide with reflective questions.
Shows that insight is a whole new way of understanding by exploring how insights get triggered, what interferes with them, and how they can be fostered, and thus, help oneself, organizations, and others.
