Summary of Jean Oelwang's Partnering

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 On June 28, 2015, André Borschberg and Bertrand Piccard had to make the most difficult decision of their lives. They decided to continue with the flight, despite the team's recommendation to turn around. Five days later, André landed in Hawaii. #2 The Six Degrees of Connection is a framework that helps you build meaningful partnerships.
It consists of six degrees: something bigger, all-in, the ecosystem, magnetic moments, celebration of friction, and collective connections. #3 The relationships in this book are not the stuff of fairy tales. They are messy and complicated, and they have required patience, acceptance, trust, and hard work. But they have also learned how to gracefully celebrate their differences and navigate conflict because their relationships are firmly anchored in meaningful purpose. #4 There is no such thing as a perfect, fairy-tale relationship in which nothing ever goes wrong.
We must begin by unlearning what we've been taught about relationships. Starting in childhood, we are taught to search for our Prince or Princess Charming, with whom we fit like a glove.
