Our social conversation has gone awry. We are surrounded by noise and retreating to social media bubbles. As conversations across ideological divides become increasingly difficult, we as a society need to rethink what it means to listen, to think, to create, and to be democratically engaged citizens. Fifteen Paths documents the journey of a disillusioned business professor who came to realize that in order to transcend the noise, we need more imaginative expressions and fewer argumentative ones.
David Weitzner sought the counsel of fourteen iconoclastic artists, including Lee Ranaldo (Sonic Youth), Jeff Coffin (Dave Matthews Band), Mike Mignola (Hellboy), Lydia Lunch, and Del the Funky Homosapien. The book offers fifteen concrete courses of action to reimagine a socially engaged life and an afterword documenting the surprising outcome of the author's personal journey.
David Weitzner is at heart a philosopher who briefly became a music industry executive and has now spent over a decade as a professor of strategy. David's research takes a critical stance on decision making in capitalist environments, leading to publication in top academic journals like the Academy of Management Review, Organization Studies, and the Journal of Business Ethics. David has presented at a host of international conferences, including Business as an Agent of World Benefit co-sponsored by the U.N. Global Compact. His work has appeared in popular media outlets as diverse as Tablet Magazine, The Forward, and Quillette. David lives in Toronto, Ontario, with his wife and three kids.
