This blog is not really about politics.
It’s about the long and bitter relationship between two Senate leaders, Harry Reid and Mitch McConnell. According to a news report, these two men—in their 70’s!—have had such a difficult relationship for so long that their fellow senators recently staged a relationship intervention. Clearly the bitterness runs deep. Despite the intervention, and the specter of plunging the country and the world into chaos over the debt limit and funding the US government, their relationship remains troubled.
As leaders, how they work together affects everyone around them (and pretty much the rest of the world). Where in your life do you have a poisonous relationship that others witness? What would it take for you to shift your own ego aside, however briefly, to see your rival as human just like you?
