I keep Steven covey as a general theme. Individual episode can be viewed separately for any new corner. Common Theme for the week (til today (29th Nov)) - Synergize (Courtesy: Stephen Covey).



Synergize - The Habit of Creative Cooperation



Habits are not techniques or programming. When we talk about habits, it is becomes our second nature just like brushing our teeth. We do not need extra energy or extra effort to do that.



Habits 6 Synergy is the fruit of Habit 4 – Think Win-Win and is the fruit of Habit 5 – First seek to understand, then to be understood.



We all know about synergy. The best thing I could relate is Ilayaraja’s Orchestra that I see in VijayTV. He acts as a conductor for the whole event. When he raises his hands, the music and everyone performs at their best /  follows in high beat and everyone is in peak performance and when he drops that is where there is pin drop silence which makes music touches our heart. Thereby he brings synergistic performance.

Paradigm:

Ineffective: It’s either your way or my way, or a compromise.

Effective: Together we can create a better way, a higher way (Illayara’s Orchestra or Bono / U2 Music Band).



Priniciple:

The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.



Behaviour

• Value and celebrate the differences.

• Practice creative cooperation.



Result:

• Innovation and invention

• New and better solutions

• Transformed relationships

• Appreciation of diverse perspectives



We all see synergy in all our daily life. Anything timeless from Thanjavur big temple to Tajmahal happened because of synergy. Anything from Ilayaraja Orchestra to Shankar’s movie happens through Synergy. Without synergy, we would not have achieved anything in life.

Conclusion:-



It is inline with our old saying, தனி மரம் தோப்பாகாது & ஒன்று பட்டால் உண்டு வாழ்வு ஒற்றுமை இல்லையேல் அனைவரும் தாழ்வு.



In a nutshell, if we truly follow synergize and implement creative cooperation in our personal life, professional life and other areas, then sky is the only limit for us (வானமே எல்லை).
