- Most people instinctively avoid conflict, but as Margaret Heffernan shows us, good disagreement is central to progress. She illustrates (sometimes counterintuitively) how the best partners aren't echo chambers -- and how great research teams, relationships and businesses allow people to deeply disagree.

"You won't commit that kind of energy and time if you really don't care."
That is the reality of it. Nicely put!
Why has this talk accumulated less than 500,000 views in 10 years?
Apart from a fantastic presentation of her basic topic of 'Dare To Disagree', the little fact that caught my attention is Dr. Heffernan's mention during her talk about how Dr. Alice Stewart could continue her research about cancer in children thanks to the Scholarship from Lady Tata Scholarship caught my attention and made so proud to be an Indian.
The Lady Tata Memorial Trust was established by Sir Dorabji Tata in April 1932 in memory of his wife, Lady Meherbai, who was struck with leukaemia in 1930 at the age of 50, and succumbed to the disease a year later in Wales, when she passed away on 18th June 1931.
That has so meaningful for me a game changer to real openness. Many thanks Joseph .
I am a highschool student and I cannot agree more with this. But throughout my schooling I've seen less and less of my peers questions things and methods and anything the teacher may say that does add up.
The reason I think that causing this is whenever a teacher is questioned, they don't try and explain or even think about it before saying 'it's just how it works'. Even on small things.
I once asked a teacher if I could do a diagram a little differently in a way that makes it (to me at least) less messy and easier for me to understand to study later. Well I got turned down and told I needed to do it the way my teacher explained, when I asked why I got 'because you need to follow directions, we do it this way for a reason.'
I'm constantly told to sit and follow directions, never question, and told thats what employers want, thats what will get us through in life... To not think, to just follow. Never be a leader. Never be different.
please keep doing what you are doing, you will go far in life.
Keep being your wonderful self. I recall being confused when I got to math answers in a different way than I was "supposed" to so I was told my way was wrong. When I was in high school I was told that I think too much. Today I am so glad that I followed my heart. I have read thousands of books and I worked with thousands of people. Today I understand so much more than I ever would have if I had listened two others instead of finding out for myself. Sometimes it can be sad and difficult to see how the world and people really are especially in the way we treat each other. But at least I am not confused, depressed and angry at myself. Follow your own curiosity and keep using your mind according to what makes sense to you. Thanks for sharing, your life is and will continue to be amazing and satisfying.
the fact you object to this "just follow the rules" mindset makes me think you would make a better leader than a follower. I find myself in the same position at times, and if I'm told to just follow the rules, I'll do the exact opposite and make my own rules instead. It's why I'm not sure if I could ever really be comfortable as an employee of a company when I think I'd much rather start a company of my own if possible. Kinda makes you think, doesn't it? (With apologies to Shakespeare...) to follow or not to follow, that is the question.....
believe me friend, if you follow you will be a leader, if you don´t be prepared to end in a rubbish can.
This video is so amazing, i´m really excited for listened this speech, i love how she use the example for give us better explanation! thank you!
This video needs to be posted again and shared with as many individuals as practicable! Especially within the US Government! Our politicians in Congress could learn so much from her exquisite speech! 🥰👩🏽⚖️
A great talk that has that inspiration for everyday about it.
Amazing...one of the fundamental principles I use in all of my classes I teach. Embrace those that disagree. Be willing to learn from those that oppose. There is a huge skill set as she mentioned that is required. However, that skill set is well worth the investment. Thanks Margaret for your powerful story!
"Skill set" or "skill?" Think about the difference. "Skill" is the same as "skill set," except "skill" is less words, but "skill set" makes people feel they're onto something even bigger than "skill." But, they're not. It's just pretentious to add words to communicate the same thing.
What a great talk by Margaret Heffernan, Always good to be open and to be good at handling conflict management and come to some kind of agreement with the two parties, and we must also be aware of developing critical thinking at all times, Thanks for a great Ted Talk Margaret !fk
I absolutely love this!
Openness is not the end, its beginning....its so great and useful one......
This is an amazing talk!
My absolute favorite video. It is the foundation of my core belief system. “Dare To Disagree”
I love this woman. What an EXCELLENT and EXCEPTIONAL speaker she is.
As for me, it is the first speech I ever came across! I gained a lot of experience from Margaret. Thank you Dr. Abdulkadir from Somalia.
A very good talk! Thanks.
Really interesting and explains a lot about how my relationships with my bosses works so well. I'm from a very different background than they are and I'm a forward person who is comfortable speaking my mind in most environments. Including questioning almost everything. I'm probably somewhat frustrating to them at times but from those open discussions have come real progress in the time I've been there.
Fantastic point made here, excellent speech!
Another inspiring video. Thank You.
Great talk! Very inspiring!
This is so powerful!
Creo que es uno de los mejores videos de superacion que eh visto ya que me encantan los videos donde me ayudan a seguir con mis metas y son inspiradores
Thank you very much, for giving my a life quest to follow.
This video challenged me. It wasn't like a lot of ted talks that I just nodded along to, it made me think.
I always like when, as is the case with this video, the BSIT degree program I am working through includes TEDTalks as part of the reserve readings/resources for a particular week. A lot of them provide really good food for thought, and I often find myself joining in the applause at the end of the lectures and validating the claim "ideas worth sharing". This one, in particular, struck a nerve with me when it explained the issue of executives being afraid of conflicting with the higher-ups of an organization, and I pause the video long enough to make a mental note to avoid that problem as best I can with a small business I want to start up after I've earned my degree.
Totalmente de acuerdo "debemos de estar dispuestos a cambiar nuestras mentes", para el bien común y de la organización que formemos parte, con el fin de mejorar y crecer de la mejor manera.
Brilliant talk
This is indeed inspiring.
Thanks for that, good input for transformation journey
This lady is Awsome! Good one TED!
This girl is awesome. Well done, ted talks, well done. I thoroughly enjoyed this video!
What an inspiring talk and so relevant to the last few years. Highly recommend Margaret Heffernan's book, Wilful Blindness, 2011, which expands on this subject. Categorised as a business book but it's so much more.
my good sis, Margaret.. you preaching.
Just love this
great talk!!
Superb! I get so much reassurance from TED and know why I love watching speakers such as Margaret. Awesome one. I wish my boss would watch this...I wish world leaders watch this....I wish people in power watch this.
Este video ofrece una perspectiva reveladora sobre el valor del disenso en el ámbito laboral y más allá. Margaret Heffernan destaca cómo la diversidad de opiniones y el debate abierto pueden conducir a una toma de decisiones más sólida y a una mayor innovación. Su llamado a "atreverse a disentir" desafía la norma del pensamiento uniforme y fomenta un ambiente donde se aprecien las voces divergentes y se promueva el pensamiento crítico.
Amazing speech
This is a lesson in becoming present and listening before feeling.
Woa. That was really good. I got shivers.
Great talk.
Fantastic.
that would have to be, without a doubt THE wisest thing i have ever read on youtube
I have always felt like debate/conflict is essential to being better in life, but have never been able to explain it as well as this.
Wow... good spot!
Perfect placement.
loved this :)
Brilliant!
Amen! Awesome!!!!!!!
Really Fantastic
Reminds me of some crass elderly teachers I had when I was younger. Only intelligent. Good talk.
Me gusto mucho esta conferencia ya que nos da ejemplos claros de este tema, además de que es verdad que debemos de estar dispuestos a cambiar nuestra mente, para así poder desarrollarnos de una mejor manera, y abrimos a los comentarios de otros
I appreciate your invitation to practice courage!
AMAZING
Muito impactante
Esta conferencia es muy interesante, y tiene razón en lo que dice. Hay que saber incluir las opiniones de todos para poder solucionar algún problema.
openness is the beginning.
Dare to stand out, dare to be different, dare to be wrong; else you will never be right.
"The fact is the most of the biggest catastrophes that we've witnessed rarely come from information that is hidden. It comes from information that is freely available and out there, but that we are willfully blind to because we can't handle it. don't want to handle the conflict that it provokes. But when we dare to break that silence or when we dare to see and we create conflict, we enable ourselves and the people around us do to our very best thinking."
this is great mindset. i agree 100%. but you have to understand that instances like these are outliers. i face the same dilemma at work. i am always forced to conform. there are catalytic things that are essential like emotional maturity, great drive and exquisite intricate communication. mostly people react negatively. i am also branded a whistleblower or an eager beaver and i am always forced to conform to rules set by reclusive people. thumbs up if you agree.
Ah, that was great.
What a interesting accent, a mix between US and British
That's exactly what I think before discussing a subject with someone who's view I disagree with. What kind of arguments could he bring up and what should I respond with? It really makes you think and do some research.
That's not what I meant but that will help getting it more recognized.
I saw from another TED video that when you are in fight or flight mode the rational part of your brain is blocked by the part that is associated with your instinct. I forget what the parts are called but it is true for me because I can't think when I'm in any sort of conflict.
Beautiful :)
Contrast good!!
I see your point, as that is what the Marketing arm of TED bills themselves as.... But MY point of the matter is that they are NOT that, in my opinion.
I'll judge TED by what they offer, not by what they SAY they are.
As a College grad, an Engineer, a Businessman / Marketing Manager, & a World traveler, I am VERY well rounded, & very much aware of the differences between what people/businesses say they are - and what they REALLY are.
CLEARLY: They are *firstly* a Political platform
Beautiful!! and she`s wearing a Isaac Myaki gem!! :)
Dare to speak. Dare to stand. Dare to be! Love this talk: TRUTH! Amen sister.
I think you will find TED is more a business than an academic platform. The confrontation they describe is not limited to engineering but common in the physical and social sciences as well as the arts. Academic is all about robust, vigorous debating of ideas
00:15 You're welcome!
Nice comment! I couldn't have said it better!
I really like the subject which is burning and eternal. I'd like to listen to poetry now. And never to be back to school. I know I'm wrong, and I know why: it costs more than I could play, and I'd like to be the master, sometimes. So I'll be back if I change, if I can affoard, not if I'm dead before.
Agree to disagree - very painful, yet necessary practice.
Yes, lets all of us rate it positive :)
We do have to learn it!!! But where??
O my god..... that was good.
This reminds me of how someone might "look bad" in a piece of clothing, yet no one tells them and so they keep wearing it. A superficial issue, but similar.
Unlucky... Its 6:03 here... i can watch all day :)
"UNLESS someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better.
It's not."

Incrível
The more cogent skill is to truly evaluate the other person 's thesis so that you know what you are disagreeing with.So many of today's arguments are without substance that many people will refrain from disagreement out of a sense of dignity.
love this shit
ah, fair enough
Este video es un recordatorio poderoso de la importancia del conflicto constructivo y la comunicación abierta en la toma de decisiones y la solución de problemas. La historia de Alice Stewart es un ejemplo inspirador de cómo desafiar las creencias convencionales puede llevar a descubrimientos significativos. Aprendamos a abrazar el conflicto como una oportunidad para el crecimiento y la innovación en nuestras organizaciones y en la sociedad en general.
wow
This channel needs way more klicks. The world would be such a better place if people would actually listen to allot of the things that are presented here.
It's the hint of UK in there that confused me. Thanks. (:
Wow a tedtalks video that wasn't just leftwing propaganda, i knew there was a reason i subscribed to this channel.
Good talk
1:45 Dude with arms in front of his chest looks SO INTENSE
This is pretty neat
damn that was good
There always someone sleeping among the audience... 01:47
This is why we don't just "listen to the experts"
🙌🏾
this is a theory of validation - that you need a different person somewhat antagonistic to verify your work its logic and implementation
this sounds more like a personal vendetta than clear judgement..
