David Hi Again Chris,

I wrote a short post on ampersand leadership. See: http://zingeronleadership.blogspot.com/ Thank you for getting me to think about this and I will now always see the “&” as someone doing a form of sitting meditation/mindfulness.

I love it. I think you make a great 'point' (get it? okay, that was really bad). There's a lot of power in the notion of '&' as a way we bring people and ideas together. And I really dig your observation of the meditative look of the ampersand...it puts the symbol in a whole new light. Thanks for advancing the dialogue here. Excellent, David. I love it.

I frist thought about the line: some people make their mark others sign their name. If I had to choose I would choose "&". I know technically the ampersand is a form of typography and not really a punctuation mark but give me credit for thinking outsite of the quotation marks. As a leader I bring myself & others together and it about relationshings & results. Also, and I know this is a bit bizarre, as i just noticed it as I looked closely at the ampersand ---but it looks a bit like a side view of someone meditating and I think good leaders take time for reflection. Thank you for punctuating my view of leadership. I think I will make a lot more extensive use of this symbol.
