I’ve been discovering and enjoying Marelisa Fabrega’s Abundance Blog at Marelisa Online (see links below).
Among other resources, Marelisa offers an impressive list of 101 recommended books on creativity and innovation. I haven’t by any means read everything she suggests, but her list seems rich and thoughtful, and includes many favourites of mine, including Julia Cameron, Mihaly Csiksentmihalyi, the team from IDEO and Edward deBono.
Another gem from her blog is her tribute to Thich Nhat Hanh’s ideas on mindfulness. The post includes a link to a great video interview with Ram Dass, and another wonderful video clip about holding anger gently.
Creativity, innovation, mindfulness, emotional mastery. All great building blocks for great organisational communities, in my view.
Thanks, Marelisa for highlighting these materials and making them accessible.
