I
just finished reading Disregarded. Your book should be
required reading for each new teacher and administrator.
Explore that possibility.

. . .better than Law and Order! Full of
wisdom and information, yet written in such a way that I
couldn't put it down.

Having
read your thought-provoking book, I’ve come to believe
that every sensitive human resources type should read,
reflect and work toward your exciting vision.

Bravo! What a powerful
book! Even though you left the music scene, I saw you as
a musician throughout— doing everything possible to
create harmony in the workplace.

I agree with the book’s
opening epigraph by the Dali Llama. We can’t expect to
have peace in the world (or the workplace) without
personal growth. I think that the experiences shared in
Disregarded demonstrate how transformation can occur.
It’s comforting to know that someone feels like I do.

Thank you for writing your
book. Very honest, very readable! It’s a book that could
only be written and had to be written by someone at the
bottom.

After reading your book
I’m struck by the realization that leaders are either
ambivalent or resistant to change. We have looked to the
wrong people for organizational growth.

Every once in a while you
challenge the silent majority, the fence sitters, to
make a difference in their workplace. I couldn’t agree
more. Until we get people to vote with their feet we’ll
continue to work in organizations unfit for humans.
Thanks for writing a great book.

I
just finished reading Disregarded. I could barely put it
down because it mirrored a similar path for me. As an
educator, I was a teacher, consultant and administrator
and was always interested in creating safe environments
and community. So many of your readings and authors
touched a cord with me even though I have not studied so
deeply. Blessings on you and your work.

I’ve purchased copies of
your book for my team. I know that it’s a call to action
and I’m hoping my colleagues find it compelling enough
to start working toward something better.

I don’t know of any book
quite like yours. I appreciated the broad brush that you
used to blend sociology, psychology, spirituality,
self-help and organizational development. Bravo!

I enjoyed Disregarded very
much. I think you demonstrated over and over that people
are better than the systems in which they work. It’s
obvious to me that such a condition is a mandate for
change –a full-blown movement, if not a revolution. Best
wishes.

Wow, where do I begin? Your book was awesome. I really
enjoyed it and completed it within a day. Your ability
to integrate the knowledge acquired via years of
experience and reading resulted in an extremely powerful
book. Your book touched me numerous times. I have dealt
with workplace friction and being the “bright light”
that shows the “dust” at my school. Much of your story
felt like my biography. Your statement about feeling a
sense of “mourning” connected with me at the deepest
levels. I am just beginning to leave this mourning stage
and am trying to transform myself into a teacher that
can find fulfillment at ____. I truly believe your book
will help me heal from the pains I have experienced
within this profession. Thus, if you wrote the book to
at least alter one life, you can consider yourself a
success!
