Well done with this excellent explanation and solution-based essay. The drama triangle can be hard to see, especially when we are in it. Taking the smallest pause to allow for space between the event and our response allows us to have a choice in what we are going to do (theoretically!). This takes practice but, as you say, the only way to get out of it is to increase our awareness that we are in it.
Absolutely loved it! Jerry B. Harvey’s thinking has become foundational to my own — especially in regard to effective ways of creating cultural shifts.

Thank you Hazel and Ellie!
This awesome article put me in mind of Jerry Harvey’s book: how come every time I get stabbed in the back my fingerprints are on the knife?
His book is written for business/management/leadership folks.
Thanks for reminding me!
That's what you call your business book if you want to hook your readers :) I haven't stumbled on this one. Did you like it?
Very interesting. Thank you.

Ahhh. Do you have a link with examples of vulnerable honesty?
