Love the Disconnect Principle! It's so helpful to have language when having conversations about a conflict, misunderstanding, or disconnect ... and it's great to have language that makes the problem the disconnect, and not the person. This is a simple formula that everyone can use!
The principle (concept) itself is great. However, use it as a safety net that protects you from crashing into immaturity. By knowing that refocus your mindset on promoting literacy (acumen) and maturity (improving systems, not controlling people) i.e. connect and re-connect. Ann's talk makes us aware of the cascaded nature of disconnects. I suggest that you use the Iceberg model theory (events, patterns, structure, purpose, mindset) to assist you with identifying deeper layers/reasons to make the Disconnect principle even more powerful. Great talk!

Using it is simple but the impact is huge!
