The 9-Turn Bridge and Perspectives
During my recent trip to China while touring one of the beautiful Suzhou gardens I came across what was termed a 9-turn bridge. I asked my host about this and her answer intrigued me. She told me that the reason for the nine
turns was so that one can view the garden from the bridge from a new and different perspectives as you walked across it.
I believe this same concept can be related to leadership. As a leader we walk across the bridge of time and view our garden of vision and like on the 9-turn bridge we need to strive to look and see this garden we have created from a new perspective not only to better appreciate and understand it but to also try to see it in a new way each time.
