Passion for Freedom - Maria's Story

by Maria Gomori

"Like Virginia Satir herself -- who successor she ultimately became -- Maria Gomori firmly believes and teaches her students that unselfish, loving relationships with good and wise persons can heal and transform us more effectively than anything else in life." -- John Rossner, Ph.D., D. Little, President, International Institute of Integral Human Sciences. Although her life has been dangerous, dramatic, and tragic at times, Maria does not carry her history as a burden....She relates it in a deeply personal way that fosters enrichment and inspiration for those who hear it. -- Linda Lee Nicholls, Friend and colleague. This book is compelling. It will truly amaze and inspire you. You will not be able to put it down. -- Manuel Matas, M.D., Psychiatrist.

The Gift of Time edited by Fiona Charles

 

Successful consultants present their perspectives on lessons learned from Jerry Weinberg about the human side of software development and management, many incorporating Satir concepts and models. Internationally respected for his innovative thinking on both human and technical issues, Jerry Weinberg is a highly influential author, lecturer, and consultant, drawing on experiences gained in all three roles, as well as from a long technical career as a software developer and researcher.  Produced as a celebration of Jerry Weinberg’s still-flourishing career, The Gift of Time is at once a tribute to a remarkable and influential person, an introduction to his work, and a collection of lively and interesting essays describing practical strategies and techniques that the contributors applied and extended in their own work. 

 

Jerry Weinberg and his wife Dani studied with Virginia Satir.   Collaborations with her other students., including Jean McLendon,  resulted in a series of workshops, such as the Congruent Leadership Change Shop, for the people-based underpinnings of success in technology. . 

 

The authors of The Gift of Time are all readers, students, clients, colleagues, and friends of Jerry Weinberg They are also notable authors, columnists, bloggers, and teachers in their own right. Here, Fiona Charles, Robert L. Glass, James Bach, Michael Bolton, Jean McLendon, Sue Petersen, Esther Derby, Willem van den Ende, Judah Mogilensky, Naomi Karten, James Bullock, Tim Lister, Johanna Rothman, Jonathan Kohl, Dani Weinberg, and Bent Adsersen write about a range of topics. The resulting volume is a compendium of valuable expert advice for dealing with core issues on the human side of software development and business consulting.
