Ego, fundamentally, is a tactical thinker. It seeks immediate gratification, often prioritizing short-term victories over long-term strategic thinking. This impulsive nature can lead to conflicts within teams when individuals become entrenched in the belief that they are right. When disagreements arise, egos clash, resulting in a counterproductive environment. The dialogue illustrates this concept using the metaphor of two individuals in a boat—if one person rows in one direction while the other resists, progress halts.
