The Millwright and The Poet

Many thanks to Cultural Offering for featuring this brief, thought provoking, video featuring D.J. De Pree, the founder of Herman Miller. 

[I'm sitting in a Herman Miller chair as I write this.] 

D. J. De Pree died in 1990 at the age of 99. His son, Max De Pree, told the story of the millwright and the poet in his book, Leadership Is an Art .

It is an important story to remember.
