MAIN IDEA
“The five senses - sight, sound, touch, taste and smell -
are the keys to creating added value in any kind of
activity. Therefore, by refining and improving the senses,
you increase both your intelligence and your ability to
learn from the world around you.”
He believed and wrote that the average human “looks
without seeing, listens without hearing, touches without
feeling, eats without tasting, moves without physical
awareness, inhales without awareness of odour or
fragrance, and talks without thinking.”
By increasing the amount and quality of sensory
information you take in each day, you refine your
intelligence and increase the quality of your own life.
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT FOR MANAGERS?
It’s hard to overstate how important this is for coaches.
For instance, when you’re in the presence of a really great
coach, they truly see what’s going on.
They hear your voice tone, they see your body language, they
look at your facial expression and they are instantly aware of
any discrepancy between your body language, voice tone,
and what you’re actually saying.
This is a huge part of the art of coaching! As a coach, this is
a skill you want to be developing for the rest of your life. You
want to be sharpening your listening skill, your observational
skill.
You want to be able to read a person’s queues in the moment,
and then again, asking the right questions based on the
feedback you perceive.”
LEONARDO WAS A PAINTER, INVENTOR, SCIENTIST, AND SO
FORTH. IN THE WORLD OF BUSINESS, IS IT NECESSARY TO BE
SO MULTI-FACETED? OR IS SPECIALIZATION PREFERABLE?
Leonardo had as many as 16 different occupations: painter, sculptor, architect,
interior designer, anatomist, engineer, agronomist, optician, geologist, botanist,
urban planner, musician, gourmet, mathematician, festival organizer and, of
course, heretical philosopher.
He was an impatient soul and he was profoundly observant. Today it would
be impossible to dominate so many sciences and arts at the same time.
Fortunately, teams that are formed by complementary personalities can
behave with a Leonardian mindset.
In the business world, it is an advantage when their wide range of skills
extends into such areas as flexibility, adaptability to the changing
environment and contextual intelligence.
It is absurdly dangerous to take the view that people are interchangeable, as
in Taylor’s classic approach to management. As people, we cannot do
everything.
Talent requires a vocation and a sense of enjoyment.

appearance physical activity
• Look at a fine painting. Ponder the delicate touch required to produce an effect like that.
• Go outside and touch some of the patterns that occur in nature, feeling for texture and form.
• Spend an entire day focusing solely on how things feel.
4. TASTE
“Taste is generally associated with the food. But in reality it
depends equally on the state of our body.”
Ways to improve the sense
• When eating, avoid distractions and focus on how the food
tastes. Experience all the flavors available.
• Buy three kinds of the same food and write down in your
notebook the differences in taste between the three.
• Get involved in groups that offer a broad experience of new
and different taste sensations - such as a regular dinner group
or some other special interest group.
Connection with sense of smell:
Pinch your nose and chew the strawberry. Your tongue will
immediately sense that it is sweet. That is coming from its sugars,
and it’s the primary taste of the fruit. But with your nose closed,
you’ll not be able to exactly identify what it is you’re eating.
Now let go of your nose. You’ll immediately have it back again:
ah, a strawberry.
5. SMELL
• We are disconnected from our noses. We need them much less in everyday life, and
our vision overrides the sense of smell in a lot of situations.
• Awareness of our innate smelling abilities, however, is complicated because the human
language doesn’t have words for a trillion smells, and much of smelling happens under
the radar of our consciousness.
• Unlike our other senses, the olfactory nerves do not proceed directly to the brain’s
thalamus, the gateway to consciousness. Instead, information feeds from the nose to
cortical areas to arouse emotions and memories without our awareness. When it comes
to smells, people can be influenced and not realize it. This image looks like a carnival mask, but it
• A lot of evidence suggests that emotions have a scent. Also, such smelled emotions may actually shows the key structures mammals use
be contagious. Say you go out to meet a friend who had been watching funny videos every time they smell. The ‘mouth’ is the nasal
on her mobile phone, making her feel happy. As you approach her, you catch a whiff cavity of a mouse, which is lined with
specialized odour-sensing cells(in green). Se
of her scent and automatically smile. But had your friend just watched a scary movie,
signal to the olfactory bulbs- the round ‘eyes’
her body odor would have likely made you feel apprehensive in the image
Write in your notebook what you smell when visiting various places in your day - Broaden your vocabulary past a simple ‘‘It stinks’’
or ‘‘It smells nice’’, add floral (roses), minty (peppermint), musky (musk), ethereal (pears), resinous (camphor), foul (rotten eggs) and acrid
(vinegar) to your vocabulary, study aromatherapy -- the treatment
6. SYNESTHESIA -- THE MERGING OF
THE SENSES.
What would your painting sound like if it were an opera? How would that b-flat
blues taste if it were a soup? What colour is your first chapter? How would your
sculpture feel and look if it were wrapped around you like a cloak?
