The Promise That Changes Everything: I Won't Interrupt You by Nancy Kline
Tuesday, 10 November 2020
Nancy Kline is famed for creating the Thinking Environment, outlining how people can produce independent thinking in their organisations, teams and lives. In her latest excellent book, The Promise That Changes Everything: I Won’t Interrupt You (Penguin Life, London, 2020) she has coined the phrase “digistraction”. This is short for digital distraction. It can be best illustrated when she writes “Some of us would rather do without our friends than our phones.” It occurs to me that this maxim might also be applied to certain Board members.
