After all, he’s a poet who does his day job in the prosaic world of corporate communications. Dave Malone, author of View from the North Tenīy rights, Glynn Young ought to be a beaten man. His unique vision of poetry in the workplace goes beyond any primer or workbook-this book is elemental. Glynn Young adds eloquently to the conversation enjoyed by Dana Gioia, David Whyte, and Clare Morgan. Poets, CEOs, HR directors, IT workers, nurses, job applicants, and even non-poets. I love this book in part because of its difficulty-or, rather, ease-in classifying its audience: everyone should read it. More than just philosophy, this book brings the hope of practice and surprising discovery, the benefits of stress relief and increased accomplishment Reviews From discussions about how poetry is built into the very fabric of work, to practical suggestions on how to be a poet at work, this is a book that meets a very real need.Īltogether-a landmark book that moves beyond David Whyte’s seminal book on poetry and the corporate world. Glynn Young’s Poetry at Work is that guide. Yet there is no single source to guide those who are *at work* every day, with little direction for how to explore the power of poetry in the workplace. Publications like Harvard Business Review and FastCompany are starting to write about the power of poetry-noting poetry’s effectiveness in building creative leaders and problem solvers. There is value in bring poetry to work and finding the poetry that’s already there.
