In this talk you will be struck with the abundance and diversity of plant life, the progressive rarity of plant eaters (herbivores), then fewer omnivores, even less carnivores – and finally – the true rarity of what biologists might call an apex predators.
What lessons can be learned to elevate our behavior in the work place and our personal lives? Embrace diversity, value the oddities within our ranks, nurture those at the base of the pyramid, appreciate why there are so few who rise to the top of their work worlds, practice inter-connectedness within and between all levels of your organization - and you too can soar.
Do you want to elevate yourselves, your workplaces and your communities? Join me and start acting like an animal.
