What leaders need to know about change | Taylor Harrell | TEDxSDSU

Why is it so difficult to lead ourselves and others through change? Common wisdom says it’s because people resist change, but leadership researcher, Taylor Harrell, suggests that there’s something deeper that people actually resist. In this talk, Harrell explores the barriers we face when attempting to create change, the role of identity in resistance, and how to inspire commitment to the transformation we seek. Taylor is a researcher, consultant, and coach in organizational leadership with nearly a decade of experience delivering high-impact leadership development programs across the globe. Taylor has trained leaders from multinational corporations, government agencies, public hospitals, university departments, and non-profit organizations. She also teaches courses at the University of San Diego in the Department of Leadership Studies and the Kroc School of Peace Studies. Taylor’s research focuses on the development of high-performance teams, specifically in the domains of psychological safety, team learning, and organizational transformation. Through her work, Taylor aims to co-create organizations and societies that are compassionate, equitable, and sustainable for all. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

Good leadership starts at the top. The treatment of people is a huge issue with upper management.

All this talks are all nice, but the problem is much higher or further into the organization, or outside the organization that does not allow a more "human" treatment. Reality is, business are not there to make human life more pleasant...they are there to make MONEY, and more often than not, a more detrimental impact to society's wellbeing, most of them...why combustion cars instead of water fueled cars?...reasons are deeper and darker...removing those that create these darker environment is the key to a more successful and healthier society in many aspects...remember this, YOU DON'T REMOVE THE POISON FROM THE SNAKE'S TAIL, YOU REMOVE IT FROM IT'S HEAD...

[@dorinamorcan2494]

Okay. Interesting video. But why are her pants so long? Is it a trick to get us to remember the video afterward?
