Do you remember the fable of the tortoise and the hair the race? You have the slashy, overconfident hair that speeds ahead. The slow and steady tortoise that plots along. These two characters have become metaphors for work. On the one hand, it's all about the fast sprints, first to market share, scale aggressively, and the other is a marathon of effort, deep work, slow productivity. If you're like me, you feel the tug on both sides. You run fast trying to keep up, then burn out. Or you slow down for focus, ...

I'm only half joking when I refer to Ottawa as a city state. In land area, our city is half the size of the province of Prince Edward Island. If this is a surprise to you, please raise your hand.This poll is not just a TEDex engagement strategy. It is um a test of reality because if so many of you who care enough about big picture thinking to come to TEDex talks are unaware how vast our city is, it's certain you're not alone. Yet this reality, if embraced as part of our identity, could transform the future ...

All right, everyone. Let's start with something simple. Take a deep breath and hold it.How's that starting to feel. A little tight, a little panicky, a little restricting. And exhale.You see, leadership often feels like we're holding our breath. Like if we exhale just for a moment, everything is going to fall apart. The way that we've been taught to lead is slowly breaking us.But maybe falling apart can be the spark of a rebellion. For 30 years, I followed the leadership rule book. I remember looking up at ...

So, it was two weeks before my 40th birthday and party planning was in full swing. 40 felt like a milestone and I really wanted to celebrate. Instead, I got a stage three breast cancer diagnosis.Not exactly the gift I was hoping for. I still remember meeting my oncologist, Dr. . Mark Clemens, for the first time.He was an older British gentleman. He walked into the room, sat down on one of those little wheelie stools, wheeled right up to me, and the first thing out of his mouth was, "It's okay to cry now." I ...

An Iranian regime armed with long range missiles and nuclear weapons would be an intolerable threat to the Middle East, but also to the American people. Our country itself would be under threat and it was very nearly under threat. I was very proud to have knocked out the Iran nuclear deal by President Barack Hussein Obama. That was a horrible, horrible, dangerous document. This was our last best chance to strike what we're doing right now and eliminate the intolerable threats posed by this sick and sinister ...

We also projected four weeks to terminate the military leadership and as you know that was done in about an hour. So, we're ahead of schedule there by a. ...

Let me provide a brief update on Operation Epic Fury. Today, the United States military continues to carry out large-scale combat operations in Iran to eliminate the grave threats posed to America by this terrible terrorist regime. Following our obliteration of Iran's nuclear program in Operation Midnight Hammer a short while ago, we warned Iran not to make any attempt to rebuild at a different location because they were unable to use the ones that we so powerfully blew up.But they ignored those warnings an ...

This was our last best chance to strike. What we're doing right now and eliminate the intolerable threats posed by this sick and sinister regime regime. And they are indeed sick and sinister.Our objectives are clear. First, where. Destroying Iran's missile capabilities.And you see that happening on an hourly basis and their capacity to produce brand new ones and pretty good ones they make. Second, we're annihilating their neighbor. We've knocked out already ten ships.They're at the bottom of the sea. Third, ...
