What’s easier?

• To ask the expert to dumb themselves down for the sake of someone else’s ego. Or to train our leaders for curiosity and humility?
• To spend decades avoiding difficult topics that stand as obstacles to effective communication. Or to teach a concrete thinker how to cultivate a more sophisticated reasoning system.
• To restrict the function of a highly trained professional for the sake of simplicity? Or to identify simple rules that support everyone for effective complexity management?

Change is tension. The world we want is just a little discomfort away, and our grandchildren are begging us to withstand it. If not for our sake, then for theirs.
