    Eclecticism: The Creative Joys and Practical Wisdom of 'A Little Bit of This, and a Little Bit of That'

    What does the Parthenon in Athens have to do with modern innovation strategies? Absolutely nothing…or so it seems! 🌍✨ Just like this ancient icon, eclecticism isn’t just history, it’s a mindset to solve today’s problems. Drawing from ancient wisdom confirmed by the latest science, eclecticism borrows creatively to foster solutions for our world in ‘polycrisis,’ and our own lives. That’s also the spirit behind The Sharpener and the latest episode in the series. Ready to join the conversation and bring some eclectic energy to your day? 💡🗣️ Let me know, does this resonate or not? Will you embrace parts of the philosophy, but not all? An eclectic thing to do, I might add! #Eclecticism #CreativeThinking #TheSharpener #SocialInnovation Read the post: https://www.anastasisharp.com/thesharpener/eclecticism Donate: https://ssir.org/donate Make an eclectic masterpiece! https://tinyurl.com/mraxp84s

    [Mild language warning] The Sharpener has been to some dark places recently, including death, loss and disease.

If the past couple years have been about adjusting to the ‘new normal’, the road ahead will be about adjusting to a world of constant readjusting. Perhaps my story and thoughts through this will mean something to you as well, for whatever they’re worth. Much more The Sharpener blog and website.
