Collaborating with the Enemy: How to Work with People You Don’t Agree with or Like or Trust

If you are working to make the world a better place, there are few experiences more rewarding and useful than having your thinking turned upside down. A shift in thinking is the essence of transformation. It is the basis of renewed faith. It is at the core of great leadership. In most cases the shift happens slowly, perhaps from education or trying to make sense of unsettling experiences, usually occurring without our being aware of it. Once in a while, however, we get lucky. Our mind shifts by simply reading a book. Adam Kahane’s Collaborating with the Enemy: How to Work with People You Don’t Agree with or Like or Trust is such a book.
