In sports and in life, CONNECTION is as important as everything else put together.
We live in times that make it easy for us to believe that we must achieve perfect alignment, with each element working together seamlessly. However, this perspective restricts everyone involved to merely the sum of their individual contributions.
We provide an immersive experience of **Gestalt**, where connections between parts create something greater than the sum of the parts.
We don’t access a Gestalt by following instructions. We achieve this level of connection by observing and copying those in the Gestalt we wish to join, and processing the entirety of the experience so that we embody the Gestalt. It is easier to access a Gestalt when someone is shaping it for us.
HOW TO SHAPE A GESTALT - think Steph Curry and Antoine Dupont
1. Clarity. Ensure that the next move is apparent to everyone
2. Patience. Wait to see how everyone reacts
3. A Sense of Calmness. If the chosen move can’t be executed, stay calm, and allow another move of clarity to unfold.

One of the earliest examples of coaching players to play without thinking like a machine can be traced back to Phil Jackson and the triangle offense. Phil Jackson is regarded as one of the greatest coaches of all time. He was the head coach of the Chicago Bulls from 1989 to 1998, leading them to six NBA championships. Phil Jackson’s primary focus was on establishing organic, dynamic, flowing relationships of movement between all the players on the court. He knew that even having the best player who ever played basketball, Michael Jordan, winning still came down to the relationships between all the players. A player in Phil Jackson’s team, Steve Kerr has taken this approach forward with the Golden State Warriors and the men’s USA team. We clearly don't have the same caliber…
