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?
