“I believe we can change the world if we start talking to one another again.” With this simple declaration, author Margaret Wheatley proposes that we use the process of conversation and dialogue as the means to develop solutions for the societal changes that need to occur both locally and globally. Wheatley asserts that the changes required in all aspects of modern life will not come from governments or large organizations, or laws. The changes will be led by people- self-organizing locally with colleagues and friends to create the changes they want. Wheatley begins by describing several conditions that support good conversation, including simplicity, personal courage, real listening, diversity, and several others.
