Nature-Inspired Learning and Leading

Stephen B. Jones, a university president, lifetime champion of nature, and the founder of Great Blue Heron, LLC, explores in this book of essays how individuals and organizations can apply nature's wisdom to achieve success.Expanding on the themes in his first book, Nature Based Leadership: Lessons for Living, Learning, Serving, and Leading, he points out that nature's routes, processes, options, and outcomes seem infinite. In many ways they are, but all species-including humans-seek the same thing: to succeed, reproduce, and sustain.Jones draws upon his varied background as a natural resources scientist, educator, and philosopher to convert nature's time-tested wisdom into actionable insights that will help you live, learn, serve, and lead while engaging in responsible Earth stewardship.His personal reflections translate science through words that evoke comprehension, stir passion, elicit emotion, and prompt action. Above all else, he harnesses the wonder, magic, awe, beauty, and spirit of nature in the service of reason and the cause of humanity.Capitlize on the wisdom of the natural world with the lessons in Nature-Inspired Learning and Leading.
