Hard Corners with Tom Synan
Hard Corners is a term we used on SWAT when clearing buildings and rooms. Soft Corners were the things you could see, this was not the biggest concern. It was the Hard Corners that had the hidden dangers and challenges. Focus on the Hard Corners and you expose those challenges.That is what we will be doing with this Podcast. Exposing the tough, challenging and dangerous conversations. The conversation that make us uncomfortable and vulnerable. Rhetoric simplifies a topic in order to win an argument. I don’t care about winning arguments. I want to get into all the complexities of an issue. The raw, real and honest layers of an issue. That’s where understanding is found. Understand the human in each issue and we will learn the stories of humanity.
