Why you should have your own black box | Matthew Syed | TEDxLondonBusinessSchool

[@volkankanakan9402]

He's got great presentational skills - constantly moving to keep people awake and never used "erm..."

[@afrozinamdar1751]

And all these years I thought I made a heap of mistakes in the past and that's why I am a failure. Thank you Matthew!

[@jackhoward10]

The world really needs more people as wise as this clever, clever man. This mind set needs to be encouraged, I see him as a true role model.

[@LukePC]

I can truly class this man as a hero by dictionary definition. So talented, unambiguous and also possesses a higher understanding of the world that most are either incapable of tapping into or are ignorant to. Syed for Prime Minister

[@AndresFelipeValenciaPimienta]

You are right about M.S, also He was a great world table tennis player.

[@aliofly]

SkyBlu001 I assume this is a troll; otherwise it might just be the most ridiculous thing I have ever read

[@BboyKeygen]

here we go again -_- I'm pretty sure he was wrong somewhere, I don't know, but he must be. His talk is touching doesn't mean he is hero or talented or anything. Stop compliment because of your emotion

[@molly6570]

When something goes wrong, litigation should be directed towards the system and everyone answerable. Thank you Mr Sayed Matthew: A growth mindset culture.

[@jackperry6269]

This guys is brilliant. One of the best perspectives to change I’ve heard in a while. More people need to listen to this man and take his pov on! Really really smart guy, wise beyond his years. Reminds me of the phrase that is along the lines of “a wise man plants seed for a tree he will never see grow”

[@wehiird]

Might be the best ending to a talk I've seen

[@MoondogGamer]

Bounce is amazing. Can't wait to read Black Box Thinking this week

[@zeppelin1qaz]

One of the most talented people in this country. A great person.

[@gene7108]

When something goes wrong in aviation, the pilot rarely takes all the blame. The same cannot be said in healthcare, in which litigation is often directed at individual clinicians instead of healthcare systems or organizations as a whole. Blame culture won’t dissapear unless this changes.

[@vishraina1]

The juxtapositions are brilliant 👏

[@StephenWalkerAhoy-Boats]

Enjoyed this excellent presentation.

[@ChrisJones-tq2gv]

Powerful yet simple ideas- Syed is unique for me in his clarity of thought, backed up with real word exemplar.

[@aliofly]

CFJ Music on the contrary, Team Sky’s ‘marginal gains’ is completely discredited

[@cuebj]

@@aliofly Wrong. Rest of cycling adopted their innovations such as team bus, mattresses, team chef, training at altitude, etc. However, Sky also appear to have adopted older methods of pushing doping rules to extreme limits and even going beyond the rules - and they have budget to hoover up the best riders - and they have limited success in one-day classics. So, not completely discredited but definitely tarnished achievements.

[@LD-wf2yt]

We get exposed to, even bombarded with, many new concepts which often feel too impractical, too abstract or too broad to do something about them. So we put them into buzzwords or corporate jargon category. In this talk, Matthew Syed brings more meaning and provides real-life forces to explain the idea of Growth (aviation) and Fixed (healthcare) mindsets. We could leverage Matthew's message and use it as an insight to explain the essence of Diversity & Inclusion ideals: they are also about Growth mindset. However, I would like to contribute another important insight to build on our learning mindset in the context of Aviation vs Healthcare cultures. If we dig a bit deeper, Healthcare does not seem to be in a position to criticise the fact that just over 100 years ago the world had to deal with only several major diseases compared to 19,000 nowdays. What is really going on?

[@startupbell4632]

Amazing thoughts in this presentation. Thoughts that are echoed in Carol Dweck's and Ken Robinson's work. The hard part will be to put it into practice. Which government is going to change their education system first? Or their health care system? The potential gains are enormous.

[@neilsimpson8414]

the thoughts originated in Dweck's work.

[@AlasingacharVasudevan]

Organisations in India are looking back to what Bounce promulgated in this LBS Ted talk. Premier B school OB curriculum still advocates Talent plus approach to OD. EDUCATION can regress advancement and delay India becoming developed Nation. Rich does not mean outcome of effective contribution from domain experts !

[@bencornish6910]

Great talk...Bounce one of my favourite books.

[@KAVIAKRA4167]

Great presentation and topic

Phenomenal !

Public sector workers have the fixed mindset, painfully painful probably describes it best. They are so fixated on the way its always been and wanting to claim credit for everything so you have a feeding frenzy in place of progression. It's like comparing the private sector to the public sector. The private sector cannot afford to be idle and less competitive. The public sector is inherently lazy not because they are but because they can be.

[@bencornish6910]

I don't subscribe to this idea. It is a Thatcherite idea. There was a time when there was enormous pride a diligence working in the public sector...that is because the 'culture' backed it up as a noble cause/vocation...you could have got more in the private sector but you chose public service for its nobility etc. That notion can only last so long without being refreshed /adapted, the consequence is some of the things you mention...but it comes down to , like in Syeds talk it's the culture that drives an idea/system which makes it fixed or progressive. There are plenty of lazy useless private sector company/businesses out there.

[@luxr3148]

@@bencornish6910 the point I was trying to make is risk, ideas and progression are rewarded in the private sector whereas the public sector reinvent the wheel every new term of office. The private sector couldn’t afford to operate like that as they would soon dissolve. Most lazy private sectors are not profitable and quickly fade away. If you ran your business like that of the public sector you would be bankrupt in a week.

[@scrumptious9673]

@@luxr3148this is not quite how it works. Majority of ventures fail, so many businesses of all sizes fold each year. Risk is rewarded big, sometimes.

[@scrumptious9673]

Both sectors can’t afford to fail, but private sector can choose to compensate employees and managers much better than public sector usually can. It’s this freedom to spend in multiple areas that makes a big difference IMO.

[@edythemckee2896]

This title does not give this talk justice. It should have "a better mindset" or the like. Result is it is being ignored.

Accumulated improvement beats talent eventually.

[@charleswillcock3235]

The example of how many patients die in America every year - it is amazing that is tolerated. In the UK chances are that number is a similar proportion. USA pop. 328 million 400.000 avoidable deaths. UK 66 million that would equate to 70,000 to 80,000 per year. 1500 per week. Even if you are argue these numbers are too high. In normal times we would not tolerate a plane crashing every week with 200 people on board. if the UK adopted the learning model from the hospital highlighted - that would save a small fortune and massively improve patient care. What is disappointing this concept is not really a secret but it is consistently ignored.

[@charleswillcock3235]

Three years on the Post Office enquiry is just one more example of not wanting to learn. Had those in senior management positions in 2001 looked at why it was Sub Post Masters were now all stealing from the Post Office, the Post Office would not be in the mess it is now.

Talking about ergonomic Tesla is at the other end of the spectrum.

The age of enlightenment was more about throwing off the burden of religious dogma that held back mankind since the dark ages. Of course fear of plague and other extreme phenomena manifesting the displeasure of God played a part too. But incremental improvements in applied science occurred before the official commencement of the age of enlightenment and these accelerated the movement towards a more rational world view.

Nice presentation Respectfully, I don’t agree with his views Operating a plane you’re taught how to fly and practising medicine on real human beings are quite different activities that can’t be compared the way he is doing. Also, the stats he’s quoting aren’t directly comparable. I don’t agree with his use of growth mindset vs fixed mindset. Be as growth minded as possible, you can’t achieve certain things without prerequisites like talent, coaching, wealthy parents, wealthy society, and chance. I’m all for working hard to make your dreams a reality and not letting thoughts and beliefs limit you, but growth mindset isn’t that you believe hard work makes up for things like talent. Combat sports are a great case in point, all those athletes work very hard, but some do better than others for reasons stated above. I’ve found a couple of authors often presenting seductive theories that are flimsy, a sad trend. I don’t wish to have a discussion, just want to make my dissenting views known for people to make their own informed decision. Oh and scientists today aren’t as enlightened as he’s making them out to be. We’re all still flawed humans, still making similar mistakes as before. Many examples from recent times may be cited.

[@peirob]

400 000 people die in hospital every year of medical mistakes. This is 0.1% of the US population and since 1.3% of the population of a country shall be renewed every year-births and deaths in western countries-this means that, if we assume that 25% of this population die in an hospital, 25% of those dying there result from a medical mistakes. This would mean that US hospitals should be in deep troubles... Not really serious! This author is just replicating what he criticises.

[@scrumptious9673]

Einstein never accepted Quantum Mechanics. His example of Einstein is actually a counter example to his own argument. Except he doesn’t know fully what he’s talking about which leads to his flawed arguments.

[@bahoalternate]
