Maybe Stanford Graduate School of Business Should Mandate Workshop in Reading the Tarot

 Of course, the prestigious Stanford Graduate School of Business has compulsory classes in accounting, finance, and computer modeling.

But also part of the unique value-add it creates, reports The Economist, is how it helps students with soft skills such as introspection. The more professionals know who they are, how they are presenting themselves, and what course correction is useful, the more successful they can be in leadership and management. 

To that non-number-crunching curriculum Stanford might add a workshop on reading the Tarot. Those are the 78 mystical cards, dating back to the 14th century, which connect the unconscious to the conscious. Sound somewhat like the art of psychoanalysis? That's about right. 

In April 2021, establishment The New York Times saluted the Tarot as a tool for introspection. That helped make the unique messaging of the Tarot a credible source for personal and professional enlightenment. Incidentally, psychoanalysis is having a comeback in America.  

So what’s going on? My theory: The mindsets of rationalism or chasing after evidence-based proof are no longer as satisfying as they had been when the scientific method had been applied to just about everything.  An increasing number of my clients are highly educated professionals. They are surrendering to the possibility that not all realities are visible or measurable. Insight about themselves could be buried in the unconscious.

None of this is new, of course. Psychologist Dan Goleman who published the then breakthrough book “Emotional Intelligence” systematized what we had been noticing for years. That is, those who knew themselves and how to shape that self-knowledge into a commanding presence won out in both careers and life. They range from Disney’s Bob Iger to law firm Paul Weiss’ chair Brad Karp.

There is also the truism: The “C” students become the bosses of the “A” ones. When the “A” kids were being one-dimensional with booking it, the “C” youth were out there discovering the fit between themselves and what the world could offer. As needed, they made adjustments.
