Messages from leaders
CEOs and founders tell their own stories in short videos.
Where do you start? With "why".
Simon Sinek · TED
A leader who cannot explain why they do the work cannot pull a team along either. Sinek explains the "golden circle" here.
Your posture before you take the stage
Amy Cuddy · TED
The classic talk on how body language changes not only how others see you but how confident you feel.
Not talent — grit
Angela Lee Duckworth · TED
The research showing that what separates people who reach long-term goals is perseverance, not IQ.
What our partner schools say
