Dialog
After thoughtful preparation, both parties come together in Dialog. During Dialog the combined Elements are offered, discussed, considered, modified, negotiated, accepted and rejected in the manner that is ultimately most suitable and agreeable to both parties. Dialog is simply a structured conversation focused on forming the best possible relationship Agreement for the mutual benefit of both parties. Dialog usually reveals differing perspectives, offers greater vantages of realities and should constructively promote collaboration, reason and creative compromise. Applicable Elements are advanced to form “Commitments™” and become validated when both parties accept them. Also during the Dialog process, Durables are reviewed, compared and discussed for clues about the prospective durability of the relationship.
