Better Than Compromise

Win/lose is the game we usually play, but in the end it becomes lose/lose. So we turn to compromise. Not quite what either of us want, but what we will settle for. Really? Is that the best we can do? Four years ago we faced a divisive election and today another that feels like round two on steroids. Back then we met it with a vision for Better Than Compromise that still feels true and relevant today, so we are revisiting that vision to see how it can continue to lead us today. Join the conversation!
