Take a timeout – it strengthens the collaboration

Power is everywhere. Use it constructively!
Power is in what we say. Power is also present in what is not said. From this, a norm is formed which helps to determine what is acceptable, true, and permissible and on the other hand also what is wrong to say, as well as what is false or forbidden. In other words, not communicating […]
