A true conversation, one that you listen as well as talk.
Most people in business, in politics and in life have lost the simple art of conversation.
Maybe the internet and email and social media has a lot to with it ?
The only way to learn is to listen and to try to understand other positions.
Most people make their minds up and rather then really listen in a conversation they are more trying to listen for points to back up what they already " think " they know.
It is ok to disagree, Sandra Day OcConnor a past Supreme Court Justice said the secret is to disagree agreeably.
If you listen , truly listen, you may walk away and absorb some of it and decide their may have been some validity in the other side.
Change can only happen if we move forward together rather than one pushing the other.
Try it..have a true conversation..like our fore fathers once had.
