TEDxZurich’s Post

Are you looking for an inspiring, idea-packed experience where you'll connect with a vibrant community? Get ready for The Overlap! Join us on November 16th at UNF's Lazzara Performance Hall for TEDxJacksonville's 2024 conference, The Overlap. Featuring national and local thought leaders in fields like AI, healthcare, behavioral economics, and placemaking, this event promises a day of thought-provoking talks, stirring musical performances, and meaningful connections. With interactive experiences, networking opportunities, and a session inspired by the TED Democracy Initiative, it’s a must-attend event for those seeking fresh perspectives and breakthrough solutions. Stay tuned for our speaker and performer reveal when tickets go on sale this Monday. Don't miss out! What's The Overlap??? The world faces daunting challenges. Confronting them will require us to step outside our traditional silos, find common ground, and create opportunities for collaboration, innovation, and understanding.  So, where can we connect? In The Overlap — a place at the boundaries where different disciplines, practices, and perspectives converge. It’s also that space we don’t realize we share — the things that we have in common, that we believe in, that we care about, but that we don’t see because we're spending so much time discussing our differences.  At TEDxJacksonville 2024, we will step boldly into The Overlap, where diverse ideas meet, experimentation and exploration are encouraged, and cross-pollination can inspire the innovations we need to power a brighter future.  TEDxJacksonville 2024 is more than just an event — it's where ideas come to life. Be a part of it! You'll gain new perspectives, connect with like-minded individuals, and access exclusive content. Tickets go on sale Monday.

Namaste! Let us talk about the past, the present and the future! Albert Einstein once said: “Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning.” My posts often emphasise that the long-term commitment that Sweden and India have dedicated to our joint efforts in science and innovation stands as a beacon of progress. It is important thought that while our collaboration addresses present challenges and hope for tomorrow; we must understand our history to shape the path forward. Below I will list upcoming events but before I do so, I would like us to remember that connecting our past with today's activities is key to building a sustainable future. While Sweden and India's long-standing collaboration is proof that when we work together, our future possibilities are limitless, our past needs to be connected. And in doing so I suggest we should use Ai. With advances in Ai it is today possible to connect rich data on historical events, people, objects and places with data and information about challenges of today in areas such as climate change, circular economy, life science and similar. In a sense Ai can help the past speak with today in a whole new way than before, offering patterns and connections that we haven’t seen previously and ultimately provide us with a richer understanding of both our history and current challenges. The past can help shed light on what we experience today. I would like to see much more input from the past into current deliberations on how to deal with challenges of today. More on this topic in the video. Ok, let us return to today. What do we have in terms of upcoming Swedish activities in India? 1. In November (11-14) we have 15 Swedish universities visiting India within the fields of social science and business. Trivandrum, Chennai, Bengaluru and Delhi will be visited. 2. Also in November (19-21) we have a Battery energy storage delegation with Swedish and Nordic researchers and companies meet with Indian counterparts in Pune and Bengaluru to explore collaboration opportunities. 3. In early December we hope to arrange a Joint Committee meeting in Delhi to strengthen Sweden-India strategic priorities within Science and Innovation. 4. Also in December we will arrange SheSTEM empowering young women to study science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. 5. And for next year we expect Swedish regions to visit Indian states for collaboration and we also hope to see Swedish Ministerial visits in coming Spring fostering deeper governmental collaboration. Have a great day!

Watch the exciting video below to explore the opportunities of using AI ⬇ By using AI, we can connect historical data with today’s challenges in areas like climate change and life sciences, offering new insights and solutions. Let us use AI to bridge the past and present, improve our understanding, and build a sustainable future.

Many of us are caught chasing ideas that may not work as well as they used to. Collectively, we are at a crossroads, rebuilding from years of transformative challenges and reclaiming the power to act effectively. This is the time to reflect, make creative choices, and construct our life with meaning. What will you choose? What stories are we creating now that will impact our future selves and those who hear them. Stories are powerful in retrospect, but what if you could see and create your stories and their impact in real time? When we choose to step into our agency, embracing our roles as storytellers, we wield the power to not only share knowledge but to shape the future. Our stories help us move beyond the data and the facts to tap into the emotional and human side of our audiences, making the message resonate on a deeper level. As we each make the choice to wield our influence thoughtfully, let's remember that our stories are not just tales to be shared. They are powerful catalysts for change, imbued with the potential to impact the world in meaningful ways. If you are in Toronto join us for our Live Salon on June 13th. Have you been to a Salon… if not perhaps you’re wondering what it is? A Salon is borrowed from a historical context, think Bridgerton meets TED. These events were held to incite intelligent conversations that sparked ideas, revolutions, breakthroughs and influenced change. A Salon is curated around a big question that allows us all to join in and add our voice to an important question that is facing us now. Link for ticket in comments.

Do you remember this eye-opening talk at last year's TedX ESEI School Barcelona? In her captivating TEDx talk titled “Manage Like A Human: Short Guide to Business Anatomy,” Dr. Elena Emma, crisis coach, entrepreneur, and ESEI professor, invites us to envision organizations as living entities, akin to human beings. Dr. Emma draws a fascinating parallel between organizational development and the stages of human life. Just as humans progress from infancy to adulthood, organizations evolve through distinct phases. Let’s explore this analogy: Conception (Idea Stage): Like fetal development, startups begin with a spark—an idea. They’re fragile, full of potential, and need nurturing. 👶 Infancy (Early Days): Here, organizations take their first steps. They learn, adapt, and grow. Much like infants, they rely on guidance and care. 👧 Childhood (Growth Phase): Organizations gain strength, develop structures, and explore their surroundings. Just as children learn to walk and talk, startups find their voice. 👩 Juvenile (Adolescence): Adolescents grapple with identity and independence. Similarly, organizations face challenges, experiment, and seek their unique path. 👩⚖️ Adulthood  (Maturity): At this stage, organizations stand tall. They’ve weathered storms, honed their skills, and contribute meaningfully. Like adults, they navigate complexities. As we manage organizations, let’s remember their life cycle. Nurture them, celebrate their milestones, and recognize their humanity. After all, just like humans, organizations thrive when guided by compassion and purpose. #TEDxESEISchoolBarcelona #OrganizationalDevelopment #Leadership #BusinessAnatomy #HumanizingWork
