In a world with more than 7 billion people, 196 countries, 7,000 spoken languages, and close to 30 religions, the probability of one group or one person intentionally or unintentionally offending another group or another person is absolutely certain.Many people limit themselves in life based on their inability to get along with others, and too often we allow ourselves to be ruled by our emotions. When were emotionally reactive, were not our best selves, nor do we produce the smartest outcomes. Emotional reactions create winners and losers. And winning directly at the expense of another is actually losing in disguise, due to the resentment it inspires in the loser. Often, people get stuck in a pattern of reacting emotionally, long past the time when the combativeness that once served them no longer does; long past the time when the pattern has become destructive without them being aware of it.For everyone who wants to change that part of themselveseveryone who wants more peaceful interactions and more successful outcomes, but doesnt know how to achieve thatQuiet the Rage is the answer.

QUIET THE RAGE

How Learning to Manage

Conflict Will Change Your Life

(and the World)

Richard Burke has written a magnifi cent collection of stories and insights all of which, in one way or another, fl ank and lead us through the tricky path known as transformation.

Reading through these carefully considered chapters of insight, introspection, and occasionally even humility, I have been reminded of various stories of transformation taught or shared with me over the years.

Although few of us think of this... the word story of course means just what it says... to store things. Long before management, consulting, and coaching books were writtenin fact, before anything was actually written stories were created to hold and store information that was needed to guide us through the complicated project called life.

Such stories are still with us today, having survived the centuries through oral storytelling; with a long history of generation after generation sharing, learning, and remembering their contents in order to safeguard and protect these precious insights and, in general, hold the ground for and share them with the next generation. This is why they are often considered childrens stories.

In the opening chapters of this book, Richard shares some puzzlement regarding an assignment he accepted a few years back that would label him coach, a role which essentially would give him access to the stories of many individuals as well as the larger story-constellation of their organizations.

The word coach of course has an interesting history and comes from the Middle French coche, the German kotsche, and the Hungarian kocsi (carriage) of Kocs, the village where it was first madeall are essentially words for carriage. And while we use the word today more often for preparing people, in a more poetic sense carriage is also accurate because a good coach provides something of a support underneath the people they work with. And that is certainly part of the mission of this book - to work in structured and perhaps invisible ways to add support underneath us in order to carry us forward and even through the various predicaments life serves up.

The focus of this book, though, is transformation.

There is something almost magical in that idea, let alone experience.

In becoming a coach, it is inevitable that one will find themselves excavating their own life, remembering and untangling stories that remain with us, anchored by great extremes of feeling, only to eventually findhidden and lost amongst a lifetime of these twisting narrativesthe gifts, talents, and resources we need to make sense of our journey.

I am reminded of a very old story from antiquity called The Spirit in the Bottle. In this very old European story, we find the son of a woodcutter wandering the forest who discovers, lost and buried deep at the grassy roots of an old oak tree, a glass bottle with a voice inside calling, Let me out!

Uncorking the bottle releases a gigantic spirit who, instead of gratefully rewarding the boy, announces that it has been trapped so long that it is enraged and will now strangle him.

Being clever, the boy tricks the spirit back into the bottle and then they renegotiate the terms of its release.

Eventually the spirit is again released. This time, it rewards the boy with the gift of a cloth that, when rubbed on one side, turns things to silver and, when rubbed by the other side, heals wounds and illness.

We are familiar of course with this spirit by its commonly referred to nameGenie.

Genie is a very old North African word and the origin of our English word for genius.

Everyone has a genius trapped within them who grows more tired and angry over the years of being corked. It isnt just people with IQs of 160 and above.

In a healthy life, we would have been told the right stories early on and wouldve been advised to be on the lookout for the genius and, more importantly, the gifts that the genius carriessuch as transforming worthless things into value and also being able to heal those around us.

But few of us were actually told those stories when we needed to hear them while developing in childhood. So the genie within us waits well into adulthood, until it eventually finds its way out in a rage. By then, it has become giganticanother way of saying too big to handle.
