Poet and author David Whyte shows us that the essence of leadership is visibility and our willingness to be seen, to be vulnerable, and to risk ourselves in the world, both for others and for something we can't fully articulate.
Full Description

Poet and author David Whyte shows us that the essence of leadership is visibility and our willingness to be seen, to be vulnerable, and to risk ourselves in the world, both for others and for something we can’t fully articulate. In this talk given in Sydney, Australia, he explains vulnerability as a faculty of perception, illuminating the universal, human necessity of asking for help. He explores the qualities necessary to enable leaders to be both seen and heard; to understand what is no longer relevant and creatively engage the horizon.

About David Whyte

David Whyte grew up with a strong, imaginative influence from his Irish mother among the hills and valleys of his father’s Yorkshire. He now makes his home in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. The author of twelve books of poetry and four books of prose, David Whyte holds a degree in marine zoology and has traveled extensively, including living and working as a naturalist guide in the Galapagos Islands and leading anthropological and natural history expeditions in the Andes, Amazon, and Himalaya. He brings this wealth of experience to his poetry, lectures, and workshops. David’s life as a poet has created a readership and listenership in three normally mutually exclusive areas: the literate world of readings that most poets inhabit, the psychological and theological worlds of philosophical inquiry, and the world of vocation, work, and organizational leadership.
