The Ephemeral Nature of the Empirical
The source of lasting value that comes from the work we do as consultants and coaches is primarily in the experiences clients have from working with us. Because of its empirical nature our work is transitory. We may leave behind systems or refined processes but the deepest source of change, individually and organizationally, is in our clients’ memories of their experiences with us. So too, like consulting or coaching, Dance exists in the memory of those who see it. I was reminded of this at a recent dance performance I attended by the Lar Lubovitch Dance Company.
