In fact, Western culture has spent decades drawing lines and boxes around interconnected phenomena. We've chunked the world into pieces rather than explored its webby nature.

We experience problem-solving sessions as war zones, we view competing ideas as enemies, and we use problems as weapons to blame and defeat opposition forces. No wonder we can't come up with real lasting solutions!

Too many problem-solving sessions become battlegrounds where decisions are made based on power rather than intelligence.

Most people associate command and control leadership with the military.

We could focus our efforts on discovering solutions that work uniquely for us.

This is a world of process, not a world of things.

We would do well to ponder the realization that love is the most potent source of power.
