Evolving from
Competition to Collaboration
~ Gwilda Wiyaka ~
As populations grow, cultures, once isolated, begin to
converge. When diverse cultures are confronted with each other, only too often,
the first reaction is polarization, competition and conflict. Like it or not,
we have all been programed and indoctrinated by our respective cultures into certain
ways of thinking and behaving. Frequently, these beliefs can be diametrically
opposed to other traditions.
Naturally, each faction is convinced their way is the
right way, to the exclusion of all others. As we are experiencing, the
inevitable conflict can be devolutionary, rather than evolutionary, in nature.
Is there a way to change this conflict into
collaboration? Can we blend our diversity to create something even greater? How
can we come together and use our differences to evolve into a more powerful and
inclusive culture?

collaboration is Sambrita Basu.
