Download or read book What the Dust Doesn t Know written by Richard Schiffman and published by Salmon Publishing Limited. This book was released on 2017 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard Schiffman's first full length collection of poetry, What the Dust Doesn't Know, examines our human place in a natural world, which is at once earthily familiar and stranger than we can possibly know. The author takes the reader on a provocative romp through a universe in which dogs preach theology, dragonflies are crucified, and birds offer critiques of modern life. Underlying the playful humor is a spiritual seriousness which perceives mystery and meaning lurking in experiences that are routinely undervalued. Through Schiffman's unconventional lens, pain becomes a gateway to illumination, imperfection is "heaven's backdoor," a grey day tells human beings to shine, and hope is "the present-- unlearning the past, agnostic of the future - breathing, in its chains, like the sea." This is a book for those who believe that poetry should both delight and inspire its readers with a larger sense of life's meaning and possibilities. Schiffman lives in New York City.

Book excerpt: A former Senior Partner and Global Managing Director at the legendary design firm IDEO shows how to design conversations and meetings that are creative and impactful. Conversations are one of the most fundamental means of communicating we have as humans. At their best, conversations are unconstrained, authentic and open—two or more people sharing thoughts and ideas in a way that bridges our individual experiences, achieves a common goal. At their worst, they foster misunderstanding, frustration and obscure our real intentions. How often do you walk away from a conversation feeling really heard? That it moved the people in it forward in some important way? You’re not alone. In his practice as a designer, Fred Dust began to approach conversations differently. After years of trying to broker communication between colleagues and clients, he came to believe there had to a way to design the art of conversation itself with intention and purpose, but still artful and playful. Making Conversation codifies what he learned and outlines the seven elements essential to successful exchanges: Commitment, Creative Listening, Clarity, Context, Constraints, Change, and Create. Taken together, these seven elements form a set of resources anyone can use to be more deliberate and purposeful in making conversations work.
