Book Overview
When Sally asked me to write this foreword, I was both challenged and excited. I am excited because, in my opinion, Sally is one of those extraordinary people you only get to meet a few times in your life. That's saying something: my business, Thought Leaders, means I get to spend an inordinate amount of time around people who are truly inspiring and making a difference. No doubt Sally's backstory is point of difference enough - anyone who has been thrown the life lessons and dramatic experiences she has would be someone worth listening to - and yet that's not her greatest asset. Sally has taken a life's worth of experience and added a life's worth of learning and teaching the idea of rigorous self-responsibility.
Sally is a powerful creator and, as such, the perfect person to write a book about the co-creative age. This book should read like a codebook for hacking the future. It's rich and it's layered. The equanimous leader concept alone is an idea that should cause deep meditation and reflection in any leader who is exposed to it.
In Mahayana Buddhism, bodhisattva is the Sanskrit term for anyone who, motivated by great compassion, has generated bodhicitta, which is a spontaneous wish to attain buddhahood for the benefit of all sentient beings. Reading this book I feel like that Sally is a modern-day bodhisattva, a rare soul who pauses on her journey to enlightenment to ferry others across the river of consciousness.
The Co-Creative Age unpacks a theologically agnostic view for creating companies and cultures we would all be happy living and working in. The ideas within this book are accessible to the agnostic, atheist and extremist. I was a fan of Sally's first book Freefall - Living Life Beyond The Edge, and am happy to say even more so one of this book. It just might be Sally's life opus. That said, I have learnt that - WOW - is never a full stop with Sally. So don't read this book - absorb it. To elevate consciousness on the planet is the greatest and most worthy job any teacher can undertake.
