SLOAN admires SLOEN's charisma, because even without a plan everything flows in their direction.
SLOEN respects SLOAN's ability, because when SLOAN says they'll do something, they really do it.
Early on, when these two move together they're invincible, because both have leadership. But two people who are each a leader can't be in one room.
Where you clash
SLOAN sets a goal and tries to reach it.
SLOEN thinks their energy decides everything.
A collision happens.
SLOAN feels SLOEN ignores their plan.
SLOEN feels SLOAN takes away their freedom.
It becomes a power struggle.
Relationship playbook
The two are most at ease when they acknowledge each other.
When SLOAN says “you're really special,” and SLOEN says “your effort is cool too.”
That acknowledgment brings these two close.
“Both have to learn that a room can have two leaders, or that they can take turns being the leader. If SLOAN sometimes sets down power, and SLOEN sometimes pulls back their energy a little, these two become the best partners who lift each other up.”
