Because we’ve been conditioned by academia, societal conditioning and business, many people are unnecessarily limiting their options and outlooks with “either/or” thinking. Not every issue in the workplace lends itself to a singular right or wrong answer.
“One of the most telling signs of maturity is the ability to hold yet greater and greater paradoxes in tension without having the need to resolve the tension by embracing one side of the other.” ~Carl Jung
