In this episode Steve and Jason discuss:

• Linear, logical thinking versus creative, out-of-the-box thinking, and how they complement each other.
• Busting the myth that differences are bad, or something to overcome.
• How to move forward for the good of the company and/or relationship using Pat Lencioni’s concept of “disagree and commit”.
• How honest, open communication, and honoring what you know to be true and appreciate about each other can lead to better decisions and growth.

Key Takeaways: 

• Working with each other’s differences benefits the organization, benefits you personally, and ultimately benefits your clients.
• If you close your mind to other perspectives, too much energy is dedicated to winning, and not enough energy is dedicated to the actual issue.
• Disagreements mean different ways of thinking, which, when embraced and navigated successfully, bring strength and growth.
