"For conversations to take us to a deeper realm, I believe we have to practice several behaviors. Here are the principles I've learned to emphasize before we begin a formal conversation process: We acknowledge one another as equals We try to stay curious about each other We recognize that we need each other's help to become better listeners We slow down so we have time to think and reflect We remember that conversation is the natural way humans think together We expect it to be messy at times" Margaret Wheatley
