The same dynamics occur at the human level. Like sub-atomic particles, people are meant to be in relationship with one another. We have a basic human drive to form relationships with others and to talk to other people. When we talk authentically to people different than us we develop trust, feel safe, exchange and process information, and we change. We do not create or transform in isolation.
Relationships enhance creativity.
Many of us need to form new beliefs about the importance of relationships in our lives and to the success and sustainability of the organizations we work in and lead. Who we are is determined by how we relate with those around us. When we understand that we are interdependent, we internalize the truth that what we do to others we do to ourselves. If we damage the spirit of another, we damage our spirit. When we look back honestly through the lens of new beliefs we see the destructive patterns and dynamics of our relationships with others.
