About the author
Steven M. Darter
3 books2 followersSteve has been writing and speaking about motivated strengths and the impact it has on individual, team, and organizational productivity, effectiveness, and work satisfaction for over forty years. He has extensive experience evaluating and advising people, ranging from CEOs of Fortune 500 corporations to troubled teenagers, on work, career, and life issues
During his long career, Steve has interviewed close to 5,000 people. In each interview he used SIMA® (System for Motivated Abilities®) to understand the person's unique motivational design {Motivated Abilities Pattern® (MAP®)} and best paths for success; and in some cases, what had gotten in their way. This vantage point gave Steve an unusually close-up view of how peoples' lives unfolded, including their successes and failures, and the impact of decisions they made, actions they took, beliefs they adopted, course corrections they made, regrets, feelings of disappointment and failure, and satisfaction
Steve started his consulting career in 1976 with People Management Inc. (now SIMA International). In 1984, he was appointed Head of Executive Search and Selection; 1990-2005, he was president of People Management Northeast; and from 1996-1999, he simultaneously served as chairman of the People Management partnership organization. In 2005, he formed People Management SMD
Steve taught a career counseling course to graduate counseling students at Saint Joseph College and an advanced practicum on "Managing to Strengths" to MBA students at the University of Hartford. His honors include being profiled as one of North America's top executive recruiters in the book, The New Career Makers, based on survey results of CEOs, senior HR executives, and other business leaders

beautifully written!
This book of poems is so joyful, sad, enlightening and thought provoking!
I saw myself in many pages and reflected on my own life. Wondering if that’s what the author intended.
I just finished it and am deeply moved. I actually took a screenshot of one of the verses about G-d.
Thank you Steven Darter for writing this very beautiful book.
