Business Poetry
"Business and Poetry at first glance have little in common. Most people consider business as
representative of the rational side of our society. Business is involved with profit and
concrete ways of achieving it. Poetry represents the creative, more abstract side of the world.
It deals with ideas and emotions, not the bottom line. Yet, on closer inspection, many areas of
overlap actually exist."

Planning and Poetry
"When considering word associations, you would not ordinarily think to couple the phrases
'estate planning' or 'business planning', on the one hand, and the word 'poetry', on the other.
Indeed, you might be very confident that these prosaic and weighty subjects have never been
treated poetically. You are nearly correct, but not exactly."
Poetry & Business
"For years we have talked about business men who are closet poets. Wallace Stevens by day was a
Connecticut insurance executive, but -- by day and night -- he was an accomplished poet. These
days we find many CEOs who write poetry and even more who love it. We suspect, too, that you
will be seeing more poetry in business documents, as men and ladies of substance try to defy
the world of spin that puts such a pall on discourse throughout the darkened world."
Poetry and Business
"There's a popular belief that poetry and business don't and perhaps shouldn't mix. The present
remarks, which began as a talk (that, appropriately, was cancelled due to lack of take-up),
hope in a roundabout way to address this, or something similar."

New Surprise: Poetry
"Tarek Salem had quite a shock in his first semester at Babson College. Mr. Salem had left
Egypt to pursue a master's degree at the prestigious business school in Wellesley, Mass. But no
one had told him that in addition to crunching numbers, he would also be required to start
penning poems."
