Don’t Let The Limits Get You Down
I surprised my audience (and even myself) by talking about the Mona Lisa in response to a question following a keynote to a group of project managers. The keynote was about one of my favorite themes – the potential for any work to be approached as an art form, with accompanying opportunities for personal fulfillment and creative expression. A man in the audience respectfully asked about the difficulties of finding such luxuries as fulfillment and creative expression within tight budgets, limited job opportunities, and relentless pressure for measurable bottom-line results. It is a familiar refrain today. As I listened to the question, the image of DaVinci’s masterpiece floated across my mind.
