The art of gathering : create transformative meetings, events and experiences
Parker, Priya2018
Book
A bold new approach to how we gather that will transform the ways we spend our time together - at work, at home, in our communities, and beyond. In 'The Art of Gathering,' Priya Parker argues that the gatherings in our lives are lackluster and unproductive - which they don't have to be. We rely too much on routine and the conventions of gatherings when we should focus on distinctiveness and the people involved. At a time when coming together is more important than ever, Parker sets forth a human-centered approach to gathering that will help everyone create meaningful, memorable experiences, large and small, for work and for play. Drawing on her expertise as a facilitator of high-powered gatherings around the world, Parker takes us inside events of all kinds to show what works, what doesn't, and why.
