Part 4: State-based Technology Discussions
Barriers… • Polarity Management Tool • We All Thrive… Tapping Polarities • A Superpave/QA Perspective…
What are Polarities?... Life. • Ying & Yang • Activity & Rest • Justice & Mercy • Autonomous & Fully Integrated (Part & Whole) Good to Great by Jim Collins, we have: • Willfulness & Humility • Candor & Diplomacy • Discipline & Entrepreneurship…
I know you know this, but… • Variety is the _____ of life. • Too much of good thing is a ____ thing. • Cool Tool, Polarity Management® Map….

Agency: Network Failure Industry: Can’t Compete
Anticipating theLearning Curve • Shifting to another pole (like EDC) can represent a relatively new experience, groups are likely to get some of the downside (-) of the new pole before the upside… • Those resisting the move are asked to: • Hold onto the upside (+) of their preferred pole; • Tolerate, to some degree, the downside (-) of their less preferred pole as part of the learning process.
