You know you’re not in synergy when you:

• Feel defensive and protective of your position.
• See things the same old way and don’t believe they can change.
• Get stuck on evaluation and judgement.
• End up with predictable, uncreative or boring results.

You know you’re in synergy when you:

• Have a change of heart.
• Feel new energy and excitement.
• See things in a new way.
• Feel the relationship has transformed.
• End up with an idea or a result that is better than what either of you started with.

Give two examples from your human service internship: one where you were not in synergy and another where you were!
