The PM hat requires one to be empathetic yet be a driver; to be decisive yet inquisitive, to be structured yet adaptive, and to think "big picture" yet "sweat the details." The role of PM is full of contradictions that must be reconciled in order to succeed. Salient features of the 7th hat are alignment with strategy, doing the right thing, doing things the…

Doodle was born physically disabled, but over the course of the story Brother helps him defy all odds by teaching him how to first crawl, then walk, but only for his own selfish reasons. At first, Brother was embarrassed by Doodle and even plotted his death, but by the end of the story, they were closer…
