Description: The Art of Possibility offers a set of breakthrough practices for creativity in all human enterprises. This inspirational book is a synthesis of Rosamund Stone Zander's knowledge of cutting - edge psychology and Benjamin Zander's experiences as the conductor of the Boston Philharmonic Orchestra. Infused with the energy of their dynamic partnership the book joins together Ben's extraordinary talent as a mover and shaker teacher and communicator with Rosamund's genius for creating innovative paradigms for personal and professional fulfillment. In lively counterpoint the authors provide us with a deep sense of the powerful role that the notion of possibility can play in every aspect of our lives. The Zanders deceptively simple practices are based on two premises: that life is composed as a story ("it's all invented") and that with new definitions much more is possible than people ordinarily think. The book shifts our perspective with uplifting stories parables and anecdotes. From " Giving an A" to the mysterious " Rule Number 6" to " Leading from Any Chair" - - the account of Ben's stunning realization that the conductor/leader's power is directly linked to how much greatness he is willing to grant to others - - each practice offers an opportunity for personal and organizational transformation.
