Optimal functioning of a system requires a state of signal flow where all members or nodes feel ‘understood’.
This experience of being understood is at the core of optimal system functioning within human systems. When we don’t feel understood, it means there is a block of signal flow.

In upcoming articles, I’ll be bringing this concept back down to more personal and interpersonal levels.
