Thank you for sharing. It's focused, simple to understand, and complex to apply, it's amazing! Persistence is one of the key concepts because you have to "feel" the situation to react properly, Knowing when to push, when to sprint, or when to back off is an exceptional skill, it's almost an art!

Love what you said about positive change. No matter what your purpose in life is, there is always room to strive to make a positive difference. Great reminder. Cheers!

I found it very insightful and thought-provoking. Tres Roeder's discussion on leadership and change management related with me deeply. The concept of making "whole body decisions" by integrating rational, emotional and gut instincts is particularly interesting. I appreciate how he emphasizes the importance of adaptability and clear communication in leading change initiatives, which are undoubtedly crucial aspects of project management. The example of conflict management highlighted in the video serves as a valuable lesson for navigating challenges within project teams.

One of the best video on Project Management available on YouTube.

Extremely insightful video. Must watch for anybody looking to improve themselves, both as a manager as well as in life. 👍

"30-40 consultants packed into a room with no windows"

almost immediately after "...but there was a problem, though, because this room had a glass window"

Yeah, I'd call that a problem... in continuity.

This is more change management than project management. Regardless, it was worth the watch. Thanks!

The most Michael Scott of all Ted talks.

congrats on this TEDx talk. Just the message I needed to hear today. Tres good to see you doing well on this platform. I too have read reports of the gut and heart being able to communicate in the human body.

My favourite part about the change is when he changes to an actor and becomes Woody Harrelson

The project he described out the outset was doomed to failure, because it was birthed in secrecy. Every stakeholder should have been involved from the beginning, then they would not be shocked with the plan.

He lost me at confusing "heart" for the anatomical heart and "gut" for the anatomical gut. Doesn't trusting your heart mean trusting your feelings? And doesn't trusting your gut mean trusting your instincts? How are those directly related to organs in our cardiovascular and digestive systems? I say this because he actually gave a decent amount of time focusing on this.

Nice views on change management in the context of projects. Not being told explicitely in the "talk", it demonstrates that any change and project manager should be aware of NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) and be able to apply those.
