Learning about the brain changes everything: David Rock at TEDxTokyo

[@GuitarCoast]

Mr David Rock, your book Your Brain At Work is simply brilliant. Thank you

[@renehenriksen1735]

" - When will we make the same breakthroughs in the way that we relate to each other as we´ve made in technology?" What a deep question. When we´ve broken through all sorts of barriers perhaps.

[@donataling6758]

Yes I really love the question he posed at the end. I believe it starts from retelling the stories that are told. This will then allow our brain to focus on building connection between people rather than fearing the other person causing division and disunity. I believe that each person can start.

[@allpointstoone4346]

I would like to hear more information from David Rock. His message at the end is most important

[@ahmadmusnansyah5662]

Thanks... indeed a novelty on how we perceive our brain

[@damedinn]

His end statement about developing breakthroughs to ourselves is due to the people that have the insight don't want people that don't have it to gain the understanding. Instead they really want them to be reliant on technology to do something that they could do themselves and they can monitor all that technology these days, bring it in as a form of controlling them

[@VeronicaKulchitskaya]

Great talk. I disagree that great ideas/intelligence/creativity is a matter of perceiving more information. I think it's actually matter of being able to perceive more connections between data points. Ie. perceptive/creative people (intuitives as per mbti) get the same data as everyone else but thanks to some neurological make up that probably correlates with the G factor, they are able to make more fine tuned and subtle connections between more distantly related data points and therefore have more information to work with, which their brains are probably also better equipped to work with simultaneously. This can often be subconscious but if you focus to some extent you can consciously bring to understanding how you got a particular idea or perceived a certain phenomena others did not.

[@teameagleone_seal_swcc_nsw]

And yet you just described a process of perceiving more information lol

[@wtfwtfwtf777]

He really got me there just when I was trying to figure out what his accent was!! Lol Very like gonna read his book.

[@eszterhando3989]

Thanks, David, You Rock! :-)

[@saviom8166]

Fantastic!

[@nonchalantd]

I don't understand how to read the graph at 8:07. More suppressors were recorded and did not have positive relationships? Negative numbers on the suppressors side?

[@humanyoda]

Expressing your emotions can cause other people's blood pressure go up as well.

[@samueldanangistitoro5199]

Expressing emotion in a vulnerable way helps a lot

[@1995banana]

@@samueldanangistitoro5199 Very true - however, let us not forget how crucial emotional intelligence is at any organization.

[@benjaminwiner6220]

Suppression and repression are two different things.

[@sharonlyounkin]

interesting and useful talk

[@KickiMolin]

So true

great

[@weewilly2007]

RE: Brain at work; The methodology you espouse of manipulating emotion to stimulate intellect, is self justifying & deceptive. What happen after we've all trained one another to be nothing more than exploiters? Clearly 1 anticipated outcome is this creates a raging sea of self seeking behavour, where little dinghies looking for a safe harbour are forever at the mercy of an exploitative& abusive authority. Your thought processes are flawed. You lose

[@robertorossi5165]

weewilly2007 fully agree with your comment

[@jameswadejr.3836]

I agree. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People calls what you’re talking about “The Personality Ethic”. That’s why its so much talk of independence when as social beings, we are interdependent.

[@squamish4244]

weewilly2007 Why are you assuming we will use these powers for evil? What if we use them to rewire ourselves to be more compassionate and generous? So far our history with technology has actually been mostly positive, there's no reason to think this will be any different.

[@abcd12342695]

It's more scientific.

[@nightoftheworld]

1:18 “Those of you who are change agents in the room...” “Change agents”-this rhetoric is how I know David lives for the corporate pocket. Just another irreverent culture manipulator like Sinek.

[@robertorossi5165]

I would not pay this person for my company...

[@humanyoda]

Why?
