Rosabeth, congratulations! Great talk about these Six Keys to Leading Positive Change: 1 - Show up, 2 - Speak up, 3 - Look up, 4 - Team up, 5 - never give up, and 6 - lift others up.
Quick break from doctoral leadership study to free-write my own leadership-change slogans- Kanter style!!! How about… 7. Giddy-up: Life is a tough and unpredictable ride with many ups and downs along the way. Be prepared for chaos and agile in its face. Maintain flexibility and adapt. 8. Hold up: Don’t get overly swept away by current success or positive momentum. Take a time out, pause, reflect, and remember why you are doing this. What’s working right now and what’s not? 9. Rest up: Positive change and leadership is long and hard work requiring high overall energy expenditure ….A marathon not a sprint. If you don’t take time to rejuvenate, have some fun and look after yourself. You will burn out and unable to serve others to advance anything at all. At the very least you are unable to give your best. 10. Stand up: Similar to never giving up but…. I disagree that all ideas-causes-ideologies are worth ultimately pursuing until a potentially bitter end. Some ideas are just bad and you should always consider evolving information sources that tell you to abandon and potentially start from scratch. But…….that doesn’t mean quit either. No matter who you are, at some point, life will inevitably punch you in the face and knock you down…ALWAYS stand up. 11. Wake up: Be aware of potential dominate internal or external structural forces, mind traps, or psychic prisons that narrowly confine your thinking and limit potential to achieve something better….different or blind you to opportunities. 12. Listen up: Be humble to how little you actually know about anything in the world and listen to others who you trust and respect. Be self-aware and also listen to your gut or intuition. If something doesn’t feel quite right it probably isn’t. 13. Follow up: Continuous reassessment and evaluation of the current working plan and available resources. Don’t micromanage but check in regularly. 14. Fire it up: Just do SOMETHING. You have been given life and are on this earth for some unknown reason, make the most of this most basic but amazing opportunity.
Thank you. This was so powerful! "The person who ends up as the most influential is the person who names the problem AND gives people an idea for action". This quote is going with me in my purse tomorrow!
Thank you for the key's which are steps to follow up as well as possible: 1. Show up 2. Speak up 3. Look up to bigger a vision 4. Team up 5. Never give up 6. Lift others up
Agree with the comment on Hillary Clinton - unfortunate reference and though leadership speakers should understand the holistic nature of their sources. Was surprised that the presenter was a Harvard Business School professor. Interesting otherwise, with more focus on the messaging of the end part of 'lift others up'. We might not get on as much as others by doing this however will definitely leave a much better place.
Very nice and inspiring! Until we hit the target, in middle of our journey it is really uncertain whether we are pursuing right track. So, we should keep doing, keep going. :) :) Thank you!
I hate it when women can tell sexist jokes and it's fine, because a woman said it. Apparently in her Havard business class the men chat **** and the poor wiser women only talk when they have something invaluable to say.
I generally think of Ms. Kanter favorably, but what a way to blow up your own speech by giving as two examples of "success" two people (Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton) who have failed in the eyes of many because they lack qualities about which Ms. Kanter says little or nothing: Ultimate Accountability, Ultimate Truth and Ultimate Integrity anchored in moral absolutes that are themselves derivatives of an external standard of ultimate things, a standard that itself derives from Ultimate Being (namely, the God of Christianity). Ms. Kanter herself has built her career around philosophies that are firmly rooted in moral relativism. There is nothing wrong with her "six points" in and of themselves, but her failure to connect and ground them to "ultimate things" inevitably leads to a temporal, profane state of affairs. The lack of a connection to "ultimate things" that are rooted in an Ultimate Being is why all enterprises (save one) and all change initiatives ultimately wither and die. Ms. Kanter's advice generally is accidentally and incidentally helpful, in that she often gets right the "what." Sadly, just as often she fails to comprehend and convey the ultimate "why." If you ultimately don't get the "why," does the "what" really matter all that much?
+Larry Bradley .I posted the following and then started reading the remarks of other and read yours, read mine and you will understand........(MY POST),,,,, I thought this woman was interesting, right until new the end, when she spoke of clinton and obama (is this woman nuts)............WITH GOOD IDEAS..... etc.....OH well no one is perfect, I will remember and use the good stuff...and block out her clinton and obama remarks....thanks your remarks re connection to ultimate things HAS ME BUSY REWRITING
WOW, I lasted 5 minutes. Very liberal undertones. Men are entitled, women need to rise up. Whatever. I am trying to learn techniques, not be persuaded to a political agenda.
I thought this woman was interesting, right until new the end, when she says that hillary clinton is an honest person............WITH GOOD IDEAS..... etc.....OH well no one is perfect, I will remember and use the good stuff...and block out her clinton remarks....
You don't know Hillary Clinton personally.. You only believe what her enemies say about her... Time for reality check.. Is it not possible that you can be wrong abt her? And hey, u just said no one is perfect!
Ya no. Hillary Clinton is a terrible person. You don't have as much baggage following you around as she does without at least a small percentage of it being true. Even a small percentage of that baggage is not good. Where there's smoke there's fire.
How a Jewish person can be a liberal is beyond me. Her points are solid, but in the context of Obama and Hillary, I have to wonder if this woman is sane.

I had to watch this for a Masters course and it was PAINFUL. Although the root of her message was good as well as useful, her undertone was blatantly liberal with the examples she utilized of Obama and Hillary. This was disgusting.
I like this video that containts a good summary of key actions and attitudes towards Change in any scope. Nonetheless highly disappointed for positioning at the same level great Leaders and visionaries as Martin Luther King who died defending that all men are created equal., and Leaders as Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton, who promotes appalling laws that condemn newly born disable babys to die . I find this terrible backward change a aprofound recession in human rights that leads us to a dark age 2,300 years ago when spartans threw "unfit" (weak, sickly, deformed, or mentally challenged ) infants into a chasm of Mountain Taygetus.

Yes...just start up prematurely

This talk is incredibly meaningful, insightful, and wise! “Find Your Inner Mandela”! So good!

Awesome stuff Glenn, hope your research is going well
🤠💯 Love it!
Her voice is powerful and confident. Thank you.

Very true. How people can lead change looks different. It is not a one size fits all.
"Find your inner Mandela. Find the strength to persist." I concur. Great message!
LaTonya Branham Exactly!!

Thank you, Rosabeth Moss Kanter! Very inspiring.
Thanks, middle way along the path of change is the most difficult part of the journey. Never give up
AOSK SECRETARIAT I agree
She is amazing!! Nice presentation !!! Thanks
to arn trop: This TEDx is from 2013 !!!! No politics - just a working idea! Make it a better world!
I just want to say "thank you" to the person who translated this video to Arabic language 👏👏👏
A remarkable compendium on leadership skills. Hats off...
LOVED this!! Thank you!!
Very good talk, with real world advice
Wow.. that's so lovely and encouraging
I love this. Thank you for sharing this video.
Thank you. Its very inspiring.
Wow! I really need these 6 of them...
"we're in troubled times now" .... She had no idea :)
Absolutely inspiring.
Truly educating
That's very powerful, thank you
thank u kosabeth
I'm, " in the middle of something," sounds so much better than "I failed!" 😎😎
educative and inspiring
A little political, but great speech overall. Vision, relationships, and flexibility.... great points.
Achieve something for the world, I like that!Thank you.👏😊⭐️
Great woman, Great speech
Leaderships skills do not usually equate to 'making the world a better place' politicians prove that on a daily basis
Leadership means influence and inspiring people, politicians are not necessarily leaders at all
With leadership you can make the world a better place
Great talk!
Hi all, is anyone have the transcript of that talk?
awesome, that was very inspiring, thanks for the helpful advice.
Inspiring
That's great !
very inspiring

Great talk and good advice. Despite the Hillary comment! The ideas and message is solid.
Great!
What is the name of that law? I can't understand well.
Giving up is a failure.
Avoid at the end to talk about Political people
So true Susan. Wonder how people expect to learn. Definitely not with education. God forbid we should become educated. LOL
very nice

Good presentation though the story of "Chance the Gardner" not like she describes it.

gg! that inspires me
She's the Tom Peters of change management - thousands of words provding zero value or practical advice.
premise is good, steps relevant but examples did not age well...
Was good until it changed into a political speech.
I had to watch this for a Masters course and it was PAINFUL. Although the root of her message was good as well as useful, her undertone was blatantly liberal with the examples she utilized of Obama and Hillary. This was disgusting.
hmmmm....political agenda
All good, in fact amazing, until she threw support behind Hillary Clinton.
bull**** (coughing)....not about Six keys to leading positive change, but about used examples...americans.... ah
this video is useless. waste of time. please don't recommend
Crooked Hillary? Really? Ok. You lost me.
