TED for FIRSTERS

[MysterE]

Hi all -

While I should be making a Powerpoint on Unit IV of my AP Human Geography class, I've instead decided to start a Chief Delphi thread. Today's thread?

TED Videos.

I'll be honest, I'm addicted to them. I'm sure many of you are. I show them in my classes, to my leadership team, to my builders. . . my wife. . . . you name it. With that in mind, I wanted to ask all of you what TED videos you like and what videos you think could really help FIRST teams. Please leave a link to the video and describe why you think it could be used so well.

One video that I've found recently and have fallen in love with is the one by conductor Benjamin Zander. While the video seems to be mainly about the love for classical music, it is really an amazing video on how to be a better leader. His supposition? Leaders must believe that the people under them are capable of accomplishing the vision that is set for them.
