もっと cringe だったらどうなるか？ | Milena Matevosyan | TEDxVUB

スタートアップとテクノロジーの交差点で働くMilena Matevosyanは、人々が愚かに見えることを気にしなくなったら何が変わるのかを問いかけます。五年間にわたり、創業者が実績のないアイデアを発表する様子を見てきた経験から、恥をかくリスクを取る姿勢が注目すべき試みの一部であると論じます。講演では、「cringe」と見られることへの恐れがなぜ広がっているのか、そしてかっこよく見られることを気にしすぎないことで何を得られるのかを検討します。独立して運営されたTEDxイベントで行われた講演です。

• 大胆なアイデアを妨げる恥ずかしさへの恐れ
• 保証のない賭けに挑む創業者たち
• ぎこちなさと快適な領域の外に出ることによる成長

What if being cringe was actually the first step towards success? Milena challenges our fear of embarrassment, showing how embracing awkwardness, stepping outside our comfort zones, and daring to be ourselves are essential parts of growth and success. Milena Matevosyan, working at the intersection of startups and technology, and someone who has seen firsthand that bold ideas often come with the risk of looking a little foolish. Over the past five years, Milena has watched founders pitch ideas that didn’t exist yet, take bets without guarantees, and put themselves out there knowing they could fail very publicly. The common thread? A willingness to risk embarrassment in order to try something remarkable. In her talk, she explores why we’ve become so afraid of being “cringe” and what we might gain by caring a little less about looking cool. 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
