Balcony and the Dance Floor – from the book “Leadership on the Line” written by Ron Heifetz and Marty Linsky Get on the Balcony from the Dance Floor is a metaphor that explains the ability and need to get perspective while being involved in the middle of the action or a conflict within a group, community, and or organization. However just being on the balcony is not enough. You must return to the dance floor where the action is taking place with new information (acquired on the balcony) to initiate change.
