When the Millwright Wrote Poetry
What if the person sitting next to you at work harbors a secret life you know nothing about? Max De Pree discovered this truth when his father visited the widow of a longtime Herman Miller employee-a millwright who had recently passed away. As they spoke, the widow shared something unexpected: her husband's beautiful poetry, verses he'd written for years without anyone at the company knowing. The De Pree family wrestled with a haunting question: Was he a millwright who wrote poetry, or a poet who worked as a millwright? This story isn't just a touching anecdote-it's a mirror reflecting how we see everyone around us. How many accountants might be gifted musicians? How many engineers harbor profound philosophical insights? Leadership begins the moment we recognize that people aren't just their job titles. They're infinitely complex beings carrying diverse gifts that traditional workplaces often bury. When we create environments where people can reveal their whole selves-the millwright and the poet-we unlock possibilities that transcend conventional productivity. True leadership means polishing and liberating these hidden talents, preventing them from wasting their sweetness on the desert air.
