Collaboration

We all have different and different degrees of strengths and weaknesses. When we only rely on our personal qualities, we do well in some areas but fail in others. In collaborations, we can focus on our strengths and rely on team members who are strong in areas we remain weak. By joining extremes—the cautious with the impulsive, the impatient with the plodding, the creative with the conservative—we can find the golden, middle way. The ability to agree with and appreciate people with very different qualities increases cultural goodness, makes the world more beautiful, and brings greatness to leaders.
