The illusion of clarity — how to communicate better | Junie George Varghese | TEDxCMRIT Hyderabad
TEDx Talks· 2025-07-01 15:56
Core Argument - The report argues that miscommunication is inevitable due to misinterpretation, stemming from cognitive biases and assumptions [19] - It emphasizes that effective communication is not about expressing more, but about receiving better, focusing on tone, energy, and emotion [21][22] - The report suggests that clarity in communication comes from seeking understanding rather than assuming it [23] Reasons for Miscommunication - Words can be interpreted differently based on individual experiences and backgrounds, leading to confusion [9] - The "curse of knowledge" or "expert problem" can cause communicators to leave out details, assuming the listener's understanding [9][10] - Emotions can cloud judgment, leading to harsh words and confusing non-verbal signals [12][13] - Over-reliance on digital communication can lead to loss of nonverbal cues and reduced personal interaction, hindering trust-building [14][15] - Poor listening skills, including distractions and multitasking, can impede understanding and appropriate responses [15] Consequences of Miscommunication - Miscommunication can damage relationships, fuel frustration, create conflict, and lead to loss of trust [16] - It can have a domino effect, affecting learning, creating errors, hampering decision-making, lowering motivation, increasing costs, and destroying reputation [18] Mitigation Strategies - Increase awareness of cognitive biases and question assumptions [19] - Pay attention to how things are perceived, not just what is said [20] - Reflect on whether the message or the interpretation is the problem [20] - Observe emotions expressed without words and recognize the impact of silence [23]

TEDx Talks· 2025-06-24 16:49
Communication & Interpersonal Skills - Communication is not just about speed, but clarity, strength, and effectiveness [3] - Tact is defined as the skill and sensitivity in dealing with others or with difficult issues, being diplomatic and thoughtful in interactions [4][5] - Tact is the ability to make a point without making an enemy [5] - Consideration and listening are two important components of tactful communication [13] - Self-awareness and self-regulation are ways to achieve careful consideration in communication [14][15] Practical Application of Tact - When facing offensive remarks, delay the response to regulate emotions, suggesting techniques like "boiling the kettle" or using AI to draft a considerate reply [16][17] - Tactful communication requires paced precision, achieved by listening attentively [19] - Active and attentive listening involves understanding what a person is saying before responding [25] - Even when others respond negatively, maintain levelheadedness, as tact doesn't bend to others' inability to communicate effectively [27] - The goal is continuous improvement in communication, focusing on being more considerate and listening better [29]

TEDx Talks· 2025-06-16 16:32
Core Argument - The future of education requires a shift from content memorization to competency development, focusing on critical thinking, creative thinking, collaboration, communication, and compassion [1] - Education should embrace personalization, catering to individual learning styles and needs, aided by technology but not replacing teachers [1] - Integrated learning, breaking down subject silos, is crucial to address real-world problems that span multiple disciplines [1] - Technology should be used to empower students to become creators, not just consumers, while preserving human relationships in learning [1] - Schools need to foster innovation by creating an ecosystem that encourages inquiry, curiosity, collaboration, teamwork, digital literacy, global perspectives, resilience, and adaptability [1] Key Recommendations for Stakeholders - Teachers should focus on developing students' potential beyond knowledge acquisition [1] - Parents should advocate for education that nurtures their child's potential, not just test scores [1] - Policymakers should create assessment systems that measure what matters, not just what is easy to measure [1] - Students should understand that education is something they create for themselves [1] - Society should encourage educational innovations that cultivate wisdom, not just knowledge [1]
Rethink What Makes a Leader | Abdurrahman Gannoun | TEDxAljazari International School
TEDx Talks· 2025-06-16 16:12
why you follow certain people and not others. Have you questioned if you have to be born a certain way to be a leader? Well, I have. Growing up in Tunisia, I was never the dominant or the leader in the group. And I used to follow and look up to certain characters in my environment. But I always questioned whether leaders are a product of nature or nurture. And due to young age and lack of experience, I concluded that leaders are born leaders. But that all changed when I moved to Turkey. After only a few mon ...
