What do the FBI, NYPD, Department of Homeland Security, many US Hospitals, Johnson & Johnson, Planned Parenthood, and a group of nuns have in common? Amy Herman.
Amy is a lawyer and art historian turned expert on seeing. For 14 years, she has been providing art-based leadership training to top officers in the United States military, law enforcement, medicine, education, and industry.
In her "Art of Perception" seminars and programs, Amy shows people how to look closely at paintings, sculptures, and photographs. She teaches them to see what's missing, see what's hidden or underrated, see from someone else's eyes. Seeing better to BE better, to do a better job. In the human business, that changes lives.
Amy uses artworks to make people look again, think again, think better and be better.
She developed her Art of Perception seminar in 2000 to improve medical students' observation and communication skills with their patients when she was the Head of Education at The Frick Collection in New York City. She subsequently adapted the program for a wide range of professionals and leads sessions internationally for a very impressive, official and powerful list of clients.
Amy and I hit it off. We talked about:
- her job with FBI officers and executives, but also more surprising groups of people.
- the power of learning to look very closely and how that makes us better at our jobs, but also in our lives.
- observing, and observing art in particular, as a meditation, an act of presence and patience in a fast spinning world.
- looking, contemplating and the use of our time on earth. Life, death, and the place that art holds in all of it.
Loved all of it. I hope you do too!
