On "coming out of hiding" p. 56

""In order to assume our captaincy, we should not genuflect before the imposing array of other captains. We must stop indulging in worshipful idolatry of Bill Gates or Jack Welch (in their wiser moments, they surely wish to escape from that idolatry) and put our energies toward taking the short but difficult next step on our own pilgrim's path to self-knowledge. So long as the path is a real conversation with the greater world, it will lead us right to the frontier of presence we desire."


Describe characteristics of "presence" you desire to share in the workplace? with family? with friends?
What conditions and circumstances support our capacity to maintain characteristics of this "presence?"
What conditions and circumstances threaten our capacity to maintain characteristics of this "presence?"
