Creative thinking vs winning an argument. Creative thinking needs to be taught and valued as highly as smart thinking, right thinking, and ethical thinking.
I wonder if we've been trained - consciously and unconsciously - to converse in formats that can be intimidating and arguable ... inviting responses that are judging, which can then be judged back and forth: smart or stupid, right or wrong, ethical or corrupt ... that binary thing we do. I propose that this creates anxiety and intimidates creative brainstorming, mutually respectful musing, generous listening, genuine questioning, seeking connection and curious questions?
I can be as guilty as the next person - fishing for affirmation by winning a point in conversation ...

one way we can do this is to make more liberal use of titles, and brag on people. @Valerie Daniel is the MANAGING DIRECTOR, and we should have her listed as such in emails and things
What else is healthy orange and how can we transclude it?
What do we already do that is already healthy orange?Jordan mate, you got caught in the crosshairs of the Texan Troll Post Bot! 🍊😂 Haven’t seen someone this passionate about office snacks since the Great Tim Tam shortage of ’15!...

What do you think of Circling Europe dropping the term "Circling?". I almost don’t want
Circling Europe
to show up in my feed, but I am very curious about people’s thoughts and reactions.I had a submission to the Australian version of SXSW with a friend a little bit before the CircleAnywhere -> The Relateful Company renaming, and the title of the submission was "Relational intelligence in the workplace"....
