Beautiful storytelling. Every Australian needs to read this book.
-- Hugh van Cuylenburg, author of The Resilience Project
I love this beautiful book. The wisdom of Aboriginal ways of
thinking and acting are outlined in context of our modern world
leadership challenges. The insights of Paul Callaghan - an
Aboriginal man with leadership in Western organizations - are like
leaves of practical input floating down a quiet stream of wisdom.
It's not a harsh, angry rejection of Western views and practices;
it's a gentle walk to a better view. The insights about leadership
are powerful and timely. This should be required reading for anyone
entering a leadership position in any walk of life. -- Dr.
Bruce Perry, co-author with Oprah Winfrey of the #1 New York Times
bestselling book What Happened to You?
'A must-read guide for thriving in modern life that draws on more
than 60,000 years of culture and wisdom. It's humbling to be
trusted with some of the sacred knowledge of First Nations peoples
on this continent.' -- Osher Gunsberg * NA *
'In a period when so many questions have been asked - about family,
belonging, sustainability and purpose - this book reminds us that
the answers are and have always been right in front of us.
Aboriginal spirituality, culture and traditions have been practised
and handed down for thousands upon thousands of years, since the
beginning of time. They have been designed to help us heal and
survive. There are important lessons here for all of us to learn.'
