How to turn a group of strangers into a team | Amy Edmondson

[@marktuason418]

Teaming - teamwork on the fly - collaboration and coordination of different contexts to get work done - teaming - informal team - with 24/7 fast paced operations we are forced to get into teaming - issues we face are so big we cant do them alone; humility sets in How to make sure teaming goes well - situational humility - curiosity to what others bring - psychological safety which leads to sacrifice Basic human challenges - it's hard to learn if you already know - me or you mindset

[@Jessica_yuzhi]

Thank uuuu that’s what I need😂

[@dumbfuckjuice9915]

Oh nice it's wat i don't have at all

[@JohnnyJarps]

I've seen it changed folks life just that meeting in the morning just there own clip board with there responsibilities on there its seems like nothing but so powerful but it can create jealousy if connected folks u already know study that

[@vaedrizzy971]

This is absolutely beautiful! As an incoming senior high school student, this is a great motivation for me to put up with unhelpful group members whenever there's a group work.

[@vaedrizzy971]

"It's awfully hard to team if you inadvertently see others as competitors." This. I love this quote. To achieve a goal by a team, the team must be set on that goal. A wonderful Ted talk to show for team building exercises!

[@ceciliaspears161]

AMEN!!!

[@MrKrooper]

Skip to 10:00 if you don't want the intro. Seriously.

[@Cerbyo]

all she says is that you need to be open to learning new things, be genuinely curious about learning about other people, and put urselves in a situation where you aren't in competition with eachother. This talk coulda been 30 seconds long.

[@MultiChrisjb]

12mins about why what she has to say is important. And about 1 min saying it...

[@bobbest1611]

Kroopz: you should watch every TED talk and do the same thing. thanks.

[@MultiChrisjb]

Bob Best I realise that but when the other speakers do it, it's entertaining.

[@jamescooley8312]

"I study teaming" - "teaming is hard" - "here's a team" - "be a team." This wasn't very useful... She needed to get to specifics on how to become a team and how to rally people rather than telling us how difficult it is, and then jumping into an extreme example of a co-operative survival situation half a mile down a mineshaft. How could the developers of the demo city have overcome their professional culture clash? How can *we* overcome it? When jumping back to Chile, she teased at how many men were in such miserable conditions, and how dire the situation was. Then, running out of time, she briefly mentioned the team of people that engineered the rescue, but she didn't even touch on how everyone actually survived! After all, there is more to survival than food and water; what drove those men to all be psychologically bound to their survival? What issues did they face with their relationships in the refuge? Her ending at 12:39 , "... how quickly can you find the unique talents, skills, and hopes of your neighbor - and how quickly, in turn, can you convey what you bring?" should have been an opening statement, and had advice about that matter make up the majority of the talk. The quote and the ending statement were both on an entirely different level than the first 10 minutes of her presentation. Those two notions of getting to know people better and identifying strengths and weaknesses are what will help in gathering a group of individuals for a common purpose. If the title of the video were, "An introduction to teamwork" or something along those lines then the content would be more fitting. However, we come into this expecting to have learned a valuable skill which was not taught. Her voice gives her an incredible presence. I would definitely be interested in hearing more about how to turn a group of strangers into a team, and I see that she has quite a few books on the subject. But, based off of this, I'm not sold that she is the authority I should look to for that.

[@nicklol8269]

She's trying to spread awareness of this fault so we can overcome it together... Like legit the biggest problem we has humans have that creates a barrier to understanding each other is the 10:50 statement our brains are wired to even alter our perception to make things fit to what you already believe is true. We have a great example of how it can go extremely wrong with flat earthers... Or lookup a video called Polybious by youtuber Ahoy, it has great examples of people believing something is true to the point of actually creating memories of it.

[@HakunaYoTata]

What`s the purpose of a TED talk? Read her books.

[@niky9965]

Thank you SO MUCH. inwasnjuet thinking the same thing. She has such amazing points but they need to be clear, relatable, understandable, and constant. There are so much she's going on aboit trying to connect to the audience and is using the example provided to try to relate to them but it fell short. I love your explanation

[@jaybestnz]

Yep, I'm not usually one to critisize, but this could have been better with practical tools or methods to lead and develop team cohesion as well as friction resolution, or frameworks for great teaming and how that works. I'm. Sure she is amazing, but would have loved actionable messages.

[@RealMonoid]

All Ted Talks are like this. Its just useless talk, boring stories without any real information. Yawn

[@Dannybperez]

This is so true. If we stopped looking at everyone as competitors and started helping people the world would be so different. Ted talks have been so important in building my business it’s crazy

[@eletemmorzsaiblog]

Danny B. Perez 👏👏

[@zeromailss]

This kind of video is the reason why I'm subbed, very much appreciated

[@stevenscalling]

[@stemfactory7312]

I also find that to be the case in the boardroom when often times people are scared to speak up and put an idea forward for fear of looking nieve and foolish.

[@acpdevo]

NASA's Project Apollo was an epic team with over 300,000 contributing team members. That was 50 years ago so yes we know it can be done-- what required is the motivation.

[@cynthiasparkschannel7797]

YOU ROCK, OMG. everyone needs to watch thissssssss...>>>>

[@seee2013]

Nota: 8:22, 10:00, 12:39

[@viki.thatzme]

One of the best talks on Teaming... Very insightful!!

[@yahalife]

Teamwork is the ability to work together toward a common vision.

[@YB0BBJ]

it's awfully hard to team if you inadvertently see others as competitors! 11:52

[@kd1s]

Oh my first brush with state management employment we all got sent for training. One of the things they did was test what type of managers we were. I turned out to be a team builder.

[@fss1704]

[@pulkitsharma1039]

teaming or unity is a thing ,you able to hard to hard work what a positive woman she is hatt of her

[@jakub.anderwald]

I was at a conference once, watching a guy from a known large-scale brand giving a speech on "How to create an effective recruitment process with IT and HR?". After 25 minutes of him talking, there was a question asked from the audience "So, how do I do it, cause I didn't hear a thing about it in what you just said?". I feel the same here - it's a teaser, provoking us to read more into that subject. That's all fine, but a teaser should take like a minute or two, not 13 minutes.

[@leovanvaloyesramirez3038]

Que historia mas ejemplar para ejercer el liderazgo. excelente.

[@Baconsandwich47]

Here's how you really make A team: 1. Send a crack commando unit to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. 2. Have them promptly escape from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. 3. Still wanted by the government they'll survive as soldiers of fortune. Result: If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-Team.

[@Trippingboo]

I don't like that man,I must get to know him better! Loved it

[@tomjensenlyrics]

Lincoln also said something like, "Am I not destroying my enemies by making friends of them?" or something like that. ;)

[@thejatinmathur]

I am here after Reading "Indistractable" by Nir Eyal. He mentioned about psychological safety which brings me here.

[@JonasUllenius]

Thx nice talk and motivation. Start whit Why.

[@paxwallacejazz]

Boy You Tube is such a gift to the proliferation of little known history. Look I am Buckminster Fuller's biggest Fan. I have been since the 70s as a teen. Bucky coined the term Geodesic and generated the philosophical infrastructure that enhances it's profundity but Buckminster Fuller didn't originate the Geodesic Dome. Watch the Hidden History of the Geodesic Dome by ziptie Domes. I am here only because this brilliant woman wrote a good book about Fuller. A Fuller Explanation. PS Musicians are the ultimate experts on teaming.

[@Parthkumar_vekariya]

Excellent content!

[@alexis-zn4qr]

I’ve watched this twice and still can’t figure out what four factors define a team 🤦‍♀️

[@jdmarino]

Agree. This talk is mostly a waste of time. It never tells us "how to turn a group of strangers into a team".

[@daddy7860]

She basically had 1 semi-specific tip to fostering a team: confidently admit when you don't know something (but always be clear on your intention/goal) This leads to confidence in your word as a leader, honesty, etc, where others will trust you more and be able to work together more effectively because they are more comfortable sharing their ideas to find a solution

[@MrUppa]

And how do I turn a group of strangers into a team???

[@Skyfox94]

Overcome the technical barriers and overcome the social barriers Technical barriers are those that separate civil engineers from say software engineers - the different jargon, the different timeframes. If somebody says "This might take a long time" this means different things for the beforementioned engineers - a long time in software engineering might be 3-4 years. For a civil engineer it might be 10-15 years. Social barriers are what she mentioned at the very end, the know-it-all behavior some people bring to the table, the closed mindedness. If you overcome it and actually value the knowledge different sectors can provide things go a lot faster in return this also means that you should contribute your ideas, even if they sound stupid. Overcome the fear of looking stupid and provide an approach from your point of view and knowledge.

[@edi9892]

Christian Upmeyer I asked my guide at the first day in university, _how do I find my colleagues?_ She replied: _Talk to them._

[@edi9892]

Skyfox94 I think what's needed is something that programmers call an interface. It's based on need to know to find instantly a common language between different groups. It's basically telling as briefly and concisely what you can do and what you need.

[@yourfullofsheite]

Tell them if one is failing they all die

[@edi9892]

yourfullofsheite that puts too much pressure on them and may very well be counterproductive. Similarly, offering a shitton of money can be counterproductive too. Believing in a higher goal and doing it because you really want to yields typically the best results.

[@nancybroadcast]

Dr. Amy Edmondson, you are awesome! Thank you for this transformational and inspiring presentation with so many needed concepts!

[@mason6300]

Large cities are a relic of the last century. In the modern world with the internet and hyperconnectivity, we can all live in small towns or suburban-style cities with low pollution, neighborly communities, and green space more efficiently than in concentrated dirty large cities like London, New York, Hong Kong, etc. Hopefully, the world of colossal glass coffins is coming to an end. This pandemic certainly has sped things along quite a bit.

[@filipesousa2600]

Very good.

[@GtrChck]

Great content. I wonder if adding a psychologist to the mix to help the communication barriers would help add to the team.

Wow, that was 90% a drawn out intro, skip 8-10 minutes in if you value your time.

[@mackieconsulting]

Agree! It's the downside of TED's "storytelling" - ultimately a lack of faith that the facts and research are interesting enough on their own

[@ClaraOzoemena]

This is very insightful. Reminding ourselves what it takes to success in a business world as a team. I like the emphasis on professional culture clash. I will look out for it again.

[@sebastianelytron8450]

Make them wear bibs. Easiest and fastest way.

[@RulesofNature_Maths]

we need admission or college exam to be given in teams so teamwork has value in students mind. otherwise they don't have incentive to work in team. We need to give incentive to students to work in team. because in early age if they don't learn team work and they don't have incentive to do team work , then you will have depressed and selfish future generation.

[@waichow3658]

I happened to watch the Paper Chase in 1975. Mindset was made differently. I hope our political leader will do the same. Help one another while teaming

Unfortunately more esoteric than practical most of the time - try preaching "situational humility" to Donald Trump who holds the (climate) future in his hands but who has dropped it once already (IPCC). Love the CEO Unilever quote - again that message needs to get absorbed by D Trump.

[@Cerbyo]

TED talks viewers: she's white, like. she's a woman, dislike. But she's talking about the status quo of the patriarchy. Like. 2 likes vs 1 dislike = like this video. Do this kind of fucked up evaluation for every single video on this channel and you'll see the audience is inherently horrible. Still don't believe me? How many of you will turn on this video with disdain if she said she was a feminist or did another talk that you saw before this....about woman's rights or racism or something that says whites r bad? exactly
