Dear At,
My senses tell me we stand at a crossroads in the role of human creativity
in all of this. My senses also tell me that more and more sensible and
connected leaders in business are wakening to the finding of a 'high
purpose' via the practice of art in the widest sense as you have often
among others described it. They are some patterns I see emerging among
others.
Love,
Andrew
