Why read it?
1 author picked The Essentials of Theory U as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I love Otto Scharmer’s roadmap for changing ourselves and changing the world. He confronts the ecological, social, and spiritual divides in our current moment of crisis in human civilization.
