What can we win? Our case, to which we attribute a certain dollar value. We can also win recognition from family, friends, clients and associates. Finally, you can win the satisfaction of defending a righteous cause and being vindicated.
You can also lose this and so much more.
It’s true, the worst-case scenario does exist: having won your cause but lost everything in the process: Financially, personally, professionally. After all the years of a judicial saga, often there isn’t much left.
We speak today of participatory justice, mediation, asking for help from a third party, often a lawyer, to help resolve a conflict. Yes, but, perhaps with a lawyer open to this approach?
Is the concept of reconnecting to your intelligence and to that of the other party enough?
Before losing everything to win, why not try it? Nothing stops us from being helped by a trusted person when emotions become too strong and rock the boat.
Find Joe and his virtual avatar from the book Reaching for Intelligence Past...At Work, in this new adventure which is about settling a judicial conflict.
