- This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. At the heart of innovation is a paradox: you have to unleash the talents and passions of many people, yet you have to harness them into a work that is actually useful. Management professor Linda Hill offers three keys to overcoming this paradox and building a truly innovative organization.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
This was enlightening, her delivery was flawless.
Now I need to figure out how I can apply this lesson of collective genius as a student and entrepreneur.
Fun fact: The 15th Pixar Movie was Inside Out and it was definitely a winner.
I do not remember taking so many notes from a TED talk like I have done watching this talk. Simply fantastic!
She's a Harvard Professor. They're SO BRILLIANT
I could listen to her all day! Like others have mentioned, I had to keep stopping the video so I could take notes. "At the heart of innovation is a paradox: You have to unleash the talents and passions of many people, and you have to harness them into a work that is actually useful". So brilliant!
She is GENIUS. I love the way she deliver materials. Good job.
I have learned a lot from this presentation. It is a 'MUST WATCH" for leaders in developing countries with a desire to make jump strides in economic development. Lesotho is one of these countries.
"Leading innovation is about creating the space where people are willing and able to do the hard work of innovation problem solving." "Leadership is about creating a world in which people want to belong."
great learning in here, one of the best talks in all the TED series.
This is one of the best presentations on leadership and innovation I have ever seen. I am amazed how true this is in companies that are doing cool stuff. The hard work of innovation from collaborative problem solving is missing in many of the companies that struggle to improve.
Agreed.
I am so glad to hear this being taught. The Japanese have done this for years. I intend to hear more from Ms. Hill. God bless.
One of the best talks I’ve listened to!
It seems to be the case that this shift of priorities is seen almost everywhere nowadays. There are many organizations that are almost decentralized, only held together by a central basis that promotes communication, encourages diversity and provides and coordinates resources. Parallel computing like in multi-core processors and cloud computing is about managing a system, where the manager is only there to coordinate and keep the system consistent. Most prominently, the internet is this incredible organic place, where all kinds of ideas emerge; they are shared, discussed, refined and combined with other ideas. The whole knowledge of humanity, interconnecting in new ways every second. And TED and TEDx are good examples for such coordinators.
I envision that some day this concept may find its way into politics, but i doubt that any politician will happily give up his or her power. It saddens me to see that politics always lives in a time bubble that is way behind the rest of the world.
This is an outstanding TED talk. Ms. Hill did an outstanding job!
Dr. Hill is a brilliant genius! Thank you very much for this informative talk.
What a fantastic talk. A concise and insightful synthesis that will definitely have an impact on how I think about leadership. It really resonates.
Brilliant. Great work you get to do Linda. I see the inverted pyramid as being a model so many organizations would benefit from.
great learning in here, one of the best talks in all the TED series
Fascinating perspective. probably the most comprehensive talk I've seen so far. Don't go out of my way to see them though. Raised a few issues that I'd have loved to discuss. Had several directions kind of. Valuable thought still.
It was a very interesting experience. Thank you very much for sharing! I see it from a totally different point of view now.
How manage a collective innovation is a key factor in any organization. .

basically democracy works! power should flow from the bottom up not the other way around. let people be in charge of their own work by letting them elect their leaders
Unleadership is the key to innovation.
