  • Matt has been in leadership positions for the last 20 years and has been conducting research in to the ‘common denominator’ of great leaders over the past two years. Matt will share insight into a few of those most common denominators and use these findings to offer advice to the next generation of leaders. Leadership is there within us all, we just need to know how to harness it.
    Matt was educated and awarded at Coventry University, Cambridge University and Harvard Business School. However, his early career path began as a racing cyclist, where he represented a French racing team and also represented Great Britain. Starting on a graduate program at Rolls Royce Aerospace, at just 26 years old, Matt was offered a Director role within the Rolls-Royce Civil Aerospace business. His next challenge took him into the service industry as a Managing Director within Serco PLC and he has since held Chief Operating Officer position at National Express and Vix.
    Matt now owns APT Business Solutions and advises organisations such as Transport for the North, Transport for Greater Manchester and is an associate in GLG New York. He is about to publish a book on the importance of emotional and social intelligence in leadership.
    He is still a keen cyclist, a multi-rated pilot and arranges charity events for children charities such as BLISS and Clic Sargent.
    This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

    X factor of great leader (people, vision, passion):
    - emotional intelligence
    - self reflection, self regulation, self perception
    - the vision to be extraordinary
    - infect people with passion
    - developing your self and others for success

      That pilot doesn't get his drive and passion from visualization. His drive and passion to be perfect in the air require him to do the visualization rehearsals. He didn't even attempt to do any of those maneuvers in the air before "chair flying" them. There is no margin for error in precision aerobatics.
      I'm sorry. So much about this talk is backwards and unrealistic. It speaks of a constant high intensity that just does not exist in really successful leaders. And the research actually is all over the place on these aspects of passion and charisma. A slow burning fire is more powerful than an explosion.

    I think ego in a leader can be good... but only in the case that that ego is tied with him/her being a good person/people's person, If someone criticizes a leader with a ego that he/she wasn't humanist enough in a scenario, they will bend over backwards to make it right in the eye of their naysayers. So all in all, people are complex, there are no 100% strict guidelines to what makes or breaks a great leader (or person in all), but generally, being empathic (which can also be a huge burden) and having the ability to infect people around you with passion are 2 major traits I see.

One thing this guy does is generalize too much, there are many types of leaders, Sadam Hussein could lead, yeah, he was authoritarian and autocratic, but perhaps that is what that country needed, Democracy is not working out so well. Perhaps It is not working so well in America, now there is Trump and we shall find out.

      @matthewtupper5379 Před 6 lety +1

      Yeah, I checked your stats, media aside (agreed. who can you trust?) yes NYSE and unemployment are low, all good signs for TRUMP. anyone that looks at graphics can see that this has been the steady trend for 8 years, down with unemployment and up with the NYSE. no change since he took office. Yes he is pro big business and this could theoretically (only) encourage spending by business, but this has little to do with the NYSE or unemployment.
