The most remarkable thing about our buildingwide meetings wasn’t their length, however, but the culture of listening that developed. No matter how long it took for someone to talk, we listened. Every one of the now one hundred and fifty protesters would listen in a perfect and beautiful silence. When Hale Zukas pointed out one letter at a time on his board with the makeshift pointer stick attached to his head, the room swelled with a gracious quiet. We treasured the ability to create our own space, where our communication needs, and their slower pacing, were respected.
This is amazing!
