Fav Clips Nr 5



TED ist ebenfalls einer meiner Lieblingskanäle. Es gibt auch zahlreiche Beiträge, bei denen man geteilter Meinung sein kann, ob sie als Inspiration brauchbar sind, geschweige denn, ob sie nicht allenfalls reine Theorie sind und als unterhaltsamer Hokuspokus abgetan werden müssen. Hin und wieder jedoch gibt es wirklich aussergewöhnlich gute Beiträge, die nach meinem Dafürhalten schon in die Kategorie Kunst gezählt werden können, da sie einen immer wieder zum Nachdenken bringen und schlichtweg nachhaltig prägend für das eigene Denken sind. Hier zwei meiner Lieblingsclips:


Bei diesem Clip war ich so beruhigt. Ich habe Schule immer als Zwang empfunden. Erst an der Uni habe ich 'richtig lernen' gelernt. Vor allem die Stelle ab min 15:00 beeindruckt mich. Genial!





Das hier hat mich sehr beeindruckt. In meiner Kindheit habe ich viele Stunden damit zugebracht, irgendwelche Skatevideos zu gucken, vor allem von und mit Rodney. Er war immer ein Idol und auf dem Brett wegen seiner Kreativität ein wahrer Künstler.

Learn To Unlearn

Be Brilliant Subject matter expertise has its perks. Being an expert on any field requires deep learning as well as deliberate practice over years and years. The more professional experience you gain the more you'll swap a minimum principle mindset ('What do I need to do to achieve XY?') for a maximum principle ('How much can I possibly achieve with my available resources?'). When I started as a consultant I had a very basic and fragmented knowledge in most of the technical aspects in my subject matter.

Therefore I faced some serious challenges when I started my career in the private sector.  At the time when I joined a consulting compa...

If It Helps Someone, It's Valuable

The World Is Full Of Problems  This is good news. Actually it is great news. Problems are opportunities for growth - if you are able to find -and successfully apply- the solution to a problem that will help someone in any way, you will inevitably create value. If you can find a solution to a big problem (e.g. cure for cancer) you will create an immense value. If you can find a solution to a not so gargantuan, but widespread problem, you will have created tremendous value. But even if you find a solution to a small problem that will benefit a few people, you might still have the benefit of being able to learn something valuable that you can apply later in the solution of greater problems. Don't let yourself be discouraged by the (lack of) magnitude of problems: keep your eyes open and help people even if they do not approach you proactively - this will invite good things to happen to you in the long run. However not everybody in the workforce seems to have the proclivity to solve pr...

How to Negotiate Your Salary #7 Strategy Basics

Negotiation Strategy Basics Before engaging in any negotiations you should set up some rules and guidelines for how you plan to approach the situation. Let me elaborate on some basic principles of negotiation and focus on some specific strategies that I was able to apply effectively on multiple occasions. I was able to negotiate multiple work contracts that were mutually satisfying and I was always happy to sign each one of them. Most importantly however: looking back at all the deals I am still happy with each one of my decisions. I accredit this fact to successful negotiations. Principle I The Invariant of Negotiations: Foster Relationships All negotiations should lead to better relationships between the parties. Your paramount objective ought to be to enjoy the debate and to learn something, regardless if a deal is cut or not. Remember you all have a mutual interest and both parties will do their best to find common ground. Hence your focus should not be on convincing your counterpa...
