Review:
"The Heart Aroused is truly extraordinary. It brings a poet's ever-deepening imagination to the world of business and work. It steadies us, gives us grounding, and offers profound images for locating our work deep in the soul. The very style of the book presents a new dimension of language and reflection, with a contemplative tempo, that could help us radically and fruitfully reimagine the workplace."
-Thomas Moore, author of Care of the Soul and Soul Mates

"David Whyte's images resonate to the core. As a poet who has taken his work into the corporate world, he pioneers a vision that is at once practical and illuminating."
-Marion Woodman, Jungian analyst and author of Leaving My Father's House

"With this insightful book, David Whyte offers people in corporate life an opportunity to reach into the forgotten and ignored creative life... and literally water their souls with it. The result is a... book that can truly heal."
-Clarissa Pinkola Estés, Ph.D., author of Women Who Run with the Wolves
Synopsis:
Adaptability, vitality and creativity are key assets in the workplace, and in an ever more competitive world, organisations are realising that only through the talent and energy of their people will they retain a competitive edge. Nevertheless, organisational change and empowerment have yet to unlock the huge potential that human beings are capable of when their heart and soul are in what they do. In "The Heart Aroused", David Whyte charts the often uncertain boundary between individual aspiration and organisational necessity. He examines the fears people have about using their gifts, and shows how individuals must understand their own desires - and find their own voice - before they can truly commit to, and have influence in, the organisation for which they work. Using the language of poetry, prophecy and imagination, David Whyte creates a new level of understanding, and encourages the reader to preserve, reclaim and strengthen the life of the soul at work.
