It uses both the right brain and left brain, convergent and divergent thinking, working the same issue from all four perspectives simultaneously.
The pivotal mindset helps you to shift gears, so you can think from a neutral, open space in order to give the other person the quality of attention needed.
TEN THINGS YOU CAN DO TO SHIFT FROM A MARKET-SHARE TO A MIND-SHARE MINDSET 1. MARKET SHARE Uses power over others to win. MIND SHARE Uses influence with others to connect. 2. MARKET SHARE Leads as a hero. MIND SHARE Leads as a host.
3. MARKET SHARE Perceives differences as a deficit. MIND SHARE Dignifies differences as a resource. 4. MARKET SHARE “I have it and you don’t.” MIND SHARE “The more we share, the more we have!” 5. MARKET SHARE “How smart am I?” MIND SHARE “How are we smart?” 6. MARKET SHARE Analytic and procedural thinking are the most valued.

THREE KEY ASPECTS OF MIND SHARE: ATTENTION, INTENTION, AND IMAGINATION Attention, intention, and imagination form the connective tissue of the human mind. Attention connects you to the present moment, where you have the power to act. Intention identifies what really matters to you. Imagination explores how you can realize future possibilities.
AIMING YOUR INTENTION

BREAKTHROUGH PRACTICE: CREATING FUTURE PULL
Collaboration requires skills that few of us are taught; in fact, we are more likely to be taught how not to collaborate. To work together effectively, we will have to challenge what we think we know and be open to doing things differently.
listen underneath people’s words for what they really need and what’s important to them. As a leader, I am in service to them. Collaboration makes it possible for you both to serve each other’s success.
Attention can be thought of as the currency of mind share.
Guidelines for Aiming Collective Attention
Focus on the assets and successes that are present in the room, on what is working and what has worked. Do it in as multi-sensory and experiential a way as possible.
Aiming collective intention describes the state of a group aligned in the same direction toward a collective goal. It magnetizes everyone involved.

One of the most unused collective resources is imagination.
Until we come to value it as a legitimate way of thinking and learn how to create the conditions that foster it, we will not be able to fully access our intellectual capital. Those who know how to evoke collective imagination will lead the mind-share economy.
Using this sequence will help you aim attention, intention, and imagination.
Create ideas. A—Analyze ideas for effectiveness. R—Refine your best ideas into an action plan. E—Execute your plan by aligning task and talent.
Collaborative intelligence will help lead you from what was to what can be. Making the transition from market-share to mind-share thinking requires activating all the intellectual capital available to us.
You may come across as negative when pointing out what could go wrong. Learn to communicate your insights in a positive way.
