Habit 4 - Think Win-Win
Key Points
There are four ways of thinking about relationships with others:
Win-lose: I win, you lose. I benefit at your expense.
Lose-win: I lose, you win. You benefit at my expense.
Lose-lose: I lose, you lose. Neither of us benefits.
Win-win: I win, you win. Both of us benefit.
Effective relationships must be based on win-win thinking, or they cannot endure.
1. In what ways do we currently use “Think Win-Win” in our relationships with each other? 2. In what ways are we failing to “Think Win-Win” in our relationships with each other?
3. Why is thinking Win-Win beneficial to our school community?
4. How would thinking Win-Win affect our relationships with students and their parents?
Below are two quick videos on thinking win-win. We want to build students like the one in the basketball video. The other might be a way to explain this habit to some of our younger students.
