Synergizing
Today in the 7 Habits book I read about synergy.
Synergy is where both people in an argument or conflict are open and understands the other, mutually working toward a solution that will benefit everyone. This is basically Win/Win on a higher level. Instead of a compromise, this is like what the two people want merged together. This way, they both get pretty much what they want, instead of only half of what they want as in a compromise.
To achieve synergy, there first needs to be trust. This can be achieved by seeking to understand the other party before explaining yourself to them. After this is accomplished, there will be higher trust, and everybody will be able to open themselves up. Then they can explain what they want or do not want, and both parties can work together towards a common solution.
In conclusion, synergy is like the ultimate achievement after all of the other habits - the ability to combine everything together and understand that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.
