My favourite TED talks

By Clare on March 13, 2010

Following today’s first TEDxCanberra brainstorm, I thought I’d share a few of my favourite TED talks. Still have lots of talks from TED2010 on my ‘to watch’ list….

  • Majora Carter’s tale of urban renewal
  • Eve Ensler on finding happiness in body and soul
  • Dan Gilbert on our mistaken expectations
  • Jill Bolte Taylor’s stroke of insight
  • Ken Robinson says schools kill creativity
  • Dan Ariely on why we think it’s okay to cheat and steal (sometimes)

What are your favourites?

Apologies Are a Sign of Strength

By Clare on March 11, 2010

We lose respect for a leader when he or she fails to acknowledge a mistake. What we want to see in our leaders is a sense of self-awareness and honesty.
