Hi Lisa. Thanks for the nice article. I am a Teal coach from China, working as an independent freelancer to support self-managing organizations. I love reading your articles from “Corporate Rebel”, “Medium”, as well as LinkedIn, for quite a long time actually. I have the intention to translate some of them into Chinese and publish them in social media we use here. We cannot access YouTube, Medium, LinkedIn, Substack without VPN actually. But I think some nice articles on “Teal” “Self-management” are very nice and I would like to provide access to them to Chinese enthusiasts and practitioners in the same “teal” field . I am the translator of Brent, Susan & Travis’ book “Lead Together” and also I have translated all the 130 episodes of Frederic Laloux’s “Insights for the Journey”. From time to time, I also translate articles from Joost from Corporate Rebel. The translated texts are always attributed to the original author and with links back to the original website. I hope you will be fine with it? (for example, the translated version of this post is: https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/qlOApFE54xd15X0rmNOjRQ)

Great article! Another way I have heard of saying "Learn to discern between a problem to solve and a polarity to manage" is: "There are no solutions, only trade-offs." Both phrases get you out a right/wrong paradigm into more helpful discussions of values and context.
