Quotes by Adam Kahane  (?)

“If we want to change the systems we are part of - our countries, communities, organizations, and families - we must also see and change ourselves”
Adam Kahane, Solving Tough Problems: An Open Way of Talking, Listening, and Creating New Realities

“The problem with enemyfying is not that we never have enemies: we often face people and situations that present us with difficulties and dangers. Moreover, any effort we make to effect change in the world will create discomfort, resistance, and opposition. The real problem with enemyfying is that it distracts and unbalances us. We cannot avoid others whom we find challenging, so we need to focus simply on deciding, given these challenges, what we ourselves will do next.”
Adam Kahane, Collaborating with the Enemy: How to Work with People You Don't Agree with or Like or Trust

“For every great idea, the opposite idea is also true.”
Adam Kahane, Collaborating with the Enemy: How to Work with People You Don't Agree with or Like or Trust
