The way we’re working isn’t working (TEDx talk)

This TED talk builds on principles found in The Power of Full Engagement, exploring the four dimensions of energy: physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual with added depth and nuance. The speaker challenges us to look beyond surface-level needs, recognizing that needs within each energy domain may seem diametrically opposed. For example, an overused strength can become a weakness, while acknowledging a weakness can actually be a source of strength. By understanding these dynamics, we can intentionally assess our dominant energy management patterns and initiate meaningful change.
