Be Curious - Don't Be Judgemental | Wes Becton | TEDxElmhurstUniversity

Our world would be a better place if we strive to be more curious and less judgmental. This talk focuses on the advantages of creating awareness about how judgment may be getting in the way of us showing up as the best possible versions of ourselves and how being curious as leaders, we can help others show up as their best possible versions of themselves. Wes Becton is CEO and co-founder of George Washington Street Partners, an executive leadership coaching firm that specializes in business consulting and executive leadership coaching. Wes spent more than 20 years in the healthcare industry as an executive specializing in multi-specialty physician practices and surgery centers and eventually serving as president of an ophthalmology practice.
Wes is a graduate of the Army’s Ranger School and served as an infantry officer in Korea and as Commander of the U.S. Army’s Honor Guard Company. He also taught leadership and organizational behavior for 13 years (2005-2018) as an adjunct faculty member at Lewis University and is currently a frequent speaker and lecturer on the topics of leadership, innovation, and diversity. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

I think that it’s a result in living in a world, where some people have deemed what is normal and what isn’t normal to do, and everyone who do not fit into those boxes are deemed as being in the wrong, we need to be a lot more open minded and a lot less afraid of going outside our comfort zone. Plus having a hierarchy where some are deemed better than others, is also a big benefactor to this kind of behavior. We’re all worthy of being on this wonderful planet, so please stop seeing everyone else as bad or good. We’re all allowed to be here.

Summary
Questions should come out of curiosity and about learning other people
Not about judging perspective
Take one conversation at a time
