the art of thinking in between

The Art of Thinking in Between is the ability to hold multiple conflicting perspectives simultaneously - not to choose between them, but to extract what each one is actually asking for and construct a solution that none of them could have reached alone.

It's not compromise. Compromise gives everyone less than they wanted. The art of thinking in between gives everyone more than they asked for - because it works from values, not positions.

It's a cognitive skill built by people who grew up navigating multiple cultural frameworks at once. But anyone can learn it. And once you see it, you can't unsee it.
Everyone in the meeting was stuck between two options. She didn't pick one. She applied the art of thinking in between and came up with a solution nobody had even considered.

Difference between his asshole and a hole in the ground. 

A metaphor relating to a stupid, ignorance, and educated person that can not distinguish similarities between items or objects.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
