¿Dónde comienza el poder de crear cambio? | Wendi Williams, Ph.D. | TEDxAtlanta

En esta charla de TEDxAtlanta, la psicóloga e investigadora en liderazgo Wendi Williams, Ph.D., relaciona un círculo de escolares de Brooklyn con un movimiento que ayudó a derribar el Muro de Berlín. Explora dónde comienza el poder de crear cambio y qué se necesita para seguir adelante cuando no hay garantía de que el esfuerzo dará resultado. Williams replantea el liderazgo en torno a cómo se crea el poder, más que a la autoridad y el logro individual. La charla se presentó en un evento TEDx organizado de forma independiente por una comunidad local.

• Dos historias sin relación: escolares de Brooklyn y un movimiento vinculado al Muro de Berlín
• Dónde comienza el poder de crear cambio
• Perseverar cuando los resultados son inciertos

What does a circle of schoolgirls in Brooklyn have in common with a movement that helped bring down the Berlin Wall? Psychologist and leadership scholar Wendi Williams connects two seemingly unrelated stories to explore where the power to create change begins, what it takes to keep going when there's no guarantee that our efforts will make a difference. In her work, Wendi Williams reimagines leadership by focusing on how power is created. A psychologist, educator and leadership scholar, Wendi has spent her career examining how identity, power and belonging shape the way people lead and thrive. Her work challenges traditional models of leadership centered on authority and individual achievement, focusing instead on what becomes possible when people create opportunity for one another. Wendi is president of the American Psychological Association and founder of The Well, a leadership development and consulting practice. Previously, she served as provost and senior vice president at Fielding Graduate University and dean of the School of Education at Mills College. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
