Can competitors collaborate? Of course. They can always decide to put aside their differences for the sake of a greater good. That requires co-operation and it often brings impressive results. Far more potentially problematic, is the situation that arises when people who, are supposedly playing for the same side or working in the same team, are secretly undermining each other. The trouble you really need to watch out for now, is not necessarily the trouble you have been keeping a careful eye on. In the olden days, when the world was less enlightened, people used to say, 'What you don't know won't harm you.' Now, we know this isn't true. Secrets produce great confusion and disorientation, even if kept for what are purportedly the most noble reasons. But here is what definitely can harm you. What you do know! What you feel so very sure that you know, that you don't even question it any more. What you take totally for granted. Look at what you are not looking at. Then you will see what you really want to see!
