This is the personal blog of Philippe Tremblay: Husband, Father, Teammate. IT generalist with a passion from the bits to the cloud and the culture which unlocks their potential.

Why "Sum of Perspectives"?

If there is one thing above all that I've learned over the years, it is the value of having an open mind; The skill of seeking to view things from as many perspectives as possible and then to artfully "Sum" these to produce the most realistic representation of reality.

  • This is a skill which can be applied to anything: politics, troubleshooting, analysing a business opportunity, parenting, etc
  • It drive you communicate with others and build trust
  • It's a flywheel which makes learning fun and which expands your horizons beyond your zone of comfort.

In the end, it leads better outcomes for all involved.
