What I praise & celebrate shows what really matters to me - Intention vs impact
Focus on what has heart and meaning, tell the truth without blame or judgement,
being open/not attached to outcome, take big decisions slower,
use polls – wisdom of the crowd – avoid biases, question data more, ask for solutions,
build relationships and utilize shadow negotiations, define aspiration point, resistance point, walk away point, work towards strategic partnerships.

Design Thinking : Empathy – understand the problem of the customer on a deeper level
-> develop a solution the customer would have not thought of
-> test it with simple prototypes
-> get feedback to refine it
-> perform test runs under real conditions
