Just what is your problem? We want the same results/outcomes.
One thing there is no escaping: Dominance and power games are an absolute fact of life. They can be directed into warfare, or business, or politics, or any number of other directions, good and bad or both depending on circumstances. The important thing though is while they CAN BE DIRECTED, they can't be abolished by simple fiat.
You say the games must stop before dialogue can begin. I say they have to be a part of that dialogue, and like it or lump it included in the solution. Modified and redirected into useful channels, but included, because they're in the genome as much as the mind.
