«Waiting for the Mountain to Move» is Charles Handy's essay collection, published by Random House UK in paperback (148 pages, in English).
It brings together sixty-five short essays written for radio over ten years, each designed to be read in about three minutes. With titles such as «Life Is Not a Dress Rehearsal», «Trust and the Plumber» and «Learning from Misdoing», Handy reflects on work, purpose and life, and proposes bringing what we are closer to what we do.
The work was first published in 1991 under the title «Waiting for the Mountain to Move: Reflections on Work and Life»; this Random House UK edition appeared in November 1992.
For readers interested in practical philosophy, motivation and reflection on the meaning of work; his short essays fit into brief reading moments.
