Management & Leadership Development Specialist; I work with Leaders to help them develop their individuals, get results and build high performing teams.
I've booked! Having been totally inspired by the #tedxwarrington event last Thursday, I've just booked for the next one near me, at the Bridgewater Hall in March. (link to register for tickets at the bottom of this post) "Ideas worth spreading" was totally true! Here are just a few of the snippets that stood out for me: Jo Tosh, Parkinson's advocate, speaking about the "Bespoke 💩show with no cure" and reminding us that "Life is not a drill". Lester Barr, Consultant surgeon, talking about the risks contributing to breast cancer and that 40% of them are things we can influence ourselves (diet, exercise, weigh gain, processed food). Dr Amrita Sen Mukherjee speaking about invisible disabilities and that we "Need people who rejoice in celebrating 'different'". Carlos Munez speaking about the 4 chapters of his 'book' and that "Being our true self should be as easy as breathing... If you are a minority, understand you are a gift..you deserve to be truly yourself. You deserve to breathe in and out". Louise Herridge getting us on board with the fact that "Reading a bedtime story really could change the world!" Sue Evans sharing her thoughts on stress and that we need to find AWE in stresses- the actions we're Able, Willing and Empowered to take. All to help avoid our brains suffering from 'Learned Helplessness' (I also liked her analogy of spotting Minis, as my teenaged son has an obsession with spotting Yaris cars!). And then wrapping up with Karl Perry - The Katalyst Guy, with 3 key takeaways: 1. To appreciate and celebrate more of life's little wins. 2. The 💩-ometer 1-10 scale of perspective, that things are almost never as bad as our brains trick us into believing they are. 3. Considering our relationship between decision making, opportunities and how much we allow fear to hold us back. And not to forget "LEARN CPR!" **I apologise profusely to individual speakers if my 'scribbling in the dark' didn't capture their quotes exactly!
