Mobeen and Matthew continue their conversation with Dr. de Villa and discuss the three key skills in perspective management. Firstly, "perspective-taking" is the ability to adopt the standpoint of others, aiding in understanding their desires and concerns. The second skill, "perspective-seeking," involves actively reaching out to grasp different viewpoints without judgment, promoting authentic curiosity and learning. Lastly, "perspective-coordinating" entails leveraging the collected perspectives to gain insights, understand impacts on individuals, and make well-informed decisions.  

Their engaging conversation draws out the importance of comprehending others' viewpoints and using them to make effective leadership decisions, particularly during uncertain, crisis situations.
