the same problem. When Lisa and I have a disagreement, my job is to use my Super Sight to understand how Lisa sees the problem and how she believes her idea would solve the problem. She, at the same time, is trying to really understand how I see the problem and how I think the problem could be solved. We don’t realize it but we see the problem from different sides and have different ideas about how to fix the problem. By carefully listening to one another talk about the problem and one another’s ideas for fixing the problem and by asking questions to better understand what the other person is seeing, we begin to see a new, bigger picture of the problem. When this new, bigger, fuller view of the problem snaps into focus, we can both agree on the perfect way to fix the problem. In fact, after seeing our unified vision of the problem, we often see a third solution to the problem that we both agree is better than either of the ideas we had before when we only saw part of the picture. This is Super Sight working for us. An analogy would be two blind people in a room with a giant, stuffed mammoth. The two blind people could eventually figure out what it is by feeling their way around the mammoth. 17
