ted talk

this past week we watched this ted talk at lunch. below is the stream of conscious of my notes

general notes

  • i watned to show and discuss this talk (lets be honest, it was my wife's idea) becuase it struck me as an opportunity to instill how important it is to seek to understand rather than to seek to be understood

  • there is a good french joke

  • everyone has a persepective and everyone's persepctive is important/has context

  • i submit that most people don't understand or even attept to listen to the others context

  • my goal isn't to suggest that we need to please everyone, but we should take some time to understand others

specific notes (things i like)

  • the stories of the brothers racing around the world (demonstrating the difference between THE world and MY world)

  • aroung minute 3 - the root of clash of all civilizations is this misunderstanding anothers perspective

  • around minute 9 - 2 different mythologies; myth of business

    • side note - we are running a business here in our job, complete with customers, stakeholders, shareholders, production lines, scarcity, etc; it is a tragic fail if we don't know we are doing that (running a business)

  • around minute 12 - its about setting

  • around minute 14 - the concept of aligning belief, not measureable

  • around minute 15 and a half - how people intrisically seek to be understood

  • minute 16 - the stakeholder key performance objective expercise when they cry in front of every stakeholder

  • minute 17 - which is the better way; the indian headshake

  • final minute - we only have 2 eye while certain indian gods have 1000; there is a subjective truth
