AWNM : Symphony

I was just thinking that its hard to respond to this chapter because there's so much in it, and none of it totally connects, until I realized that in a way that's the point of the chapter - to be successfull, you have to be able to see the big picture. You need to be able to see all the separate parts as a whole, not just as individual parts.

I found it really interesting that people like Richard Branson are (were) slightly dyslexic, and that it helped them succeed. Instead of being disabled, to quote Joe Swanson from Family Guy, he's "differently abled." (If I could find it on Youtube, I'd embed the video clip of it. . . )

I can definately see how how the idea of symphony is important and relivant for today. As companies are moving and spreading out (be in within or outside the US), there are going to be more and more bits, pieces, and parts spread around the world. People need to understand how they work (each part and its sub-parts, understood through story), and then people need to be able to put the whole thing together (symphony), basically understanding that each story needs to have the same ending to acieve success.
