3. Check the basics- ensure that small details don't prevent us from accomplishing amazing things.
Thank you. Just what flash notes I need for a reactionary essay. Have a good day take care and God bless you.
Thank you so much I needed a summary for school
Thank you!
THANK YOU SO MUCH
Thank you so much.
1. Challenge the constraints
2. Ask first, “what failure look like, what does success look like”
3. Don’t forget the details
Thank you sincerely for saving me time.
Actually, step 2 was to contemplate "what failure looks like" only after you've thought about "what success looks like," or, for each possible success path to think about what failure for it may look like.
1. challenge the constraints
2. embrace a pre-mortem
3. check the basics

Very interesting lessons indeed
Best speech I have heard about decision making. Understand every step with the examples he shared and the last story was a great example of how to use all three step to make best decision.
Enjoyed watching this with my college students in two Conflict Resolution classes. The opener on the use of five dollars is powerful.
Really? Great to hear it
Really great video on decision making! The examples shared were brilliant! The one with the pilot landing really got me! Decision making under pressure really is a skill!

Well organized and good examples.
Thank you!

Thank you very much
Love this talk, so much great information in 12 minutes!
One of the best Ted talks.
1- تحدى القيود .
حدد القيود التي تواجهك و تمنعك من أتخاذ قرارك .
2- تقبل "مرحلة ما قبل الموت ".
تخيل و حلل الأخطاء التي ممكن أن تقع فيها بعد ما تتخذ قرارك و أعطها حلاً .
3- تأكد من الأساسيات .
بعض المرات حينما تتخذ القرار أنت تركز على التفاصيل المعقدة وتنسى التفاصيل الاساسيه الصغيره , يجب أن تعطي كل تفاصيل المشكله نفس الإهتمام .
شكرا جزيلا

I don't understand why youths and adults are still poor when they have a smart phone and great opportunities on how to make money💸
Thank you
I just want to say thank you.
Loved it, well structured talk that hits the mark. So, are you conducting a premortem or a postmortem? Which is better? Watch this video to find out.
Thanks Mitchell - appreciate your feedback!
Nice recaping at 9:24
Thank you sir
An awesome presentation.
brilliant shares
Challenge the constraints.
Challenge the $5 in the envelope.
Constraints prevent innovate ideas from ever developing.
Which allow you to think big and think different.
What barriers are hold you back.
Start there and see what’s holding you back.
Invest the time upfront, how an idea you are considering could end in failure.
To mitigate mistakes and correct for better corse of action.
Check the basics.
Don’t let small details be the downfall.
Check all the simple tasks.
Don’t let basic things, prevent amazing things.
thx mate
Whenever we take any step, we always have fear in mind and it gives many reason to take in back. We can never have complete input for premortem. Its impossible.
"Check the basics" doesn't seem like it's part of decision making. It feels like it's more in the category of how to execute once you've made a decision
thank you all very much
This is good.
know what the Real Opportunity is ... and know the Constraint! Define these very carefully & clearly!!!
This is an absolute classic.
Challenge the constraints. Embrace a pre-mortem. Check the basics.
But the delivery and stories are brilliant.
An absolute classic 👌🏽
Best speech I've heard about decision making. Understand every step with the examples he shared and enjoyed the last story as a great example of how to use all three steps :)
Heather - thank you for the kind words
I really want to make a different choice rather than opting out for old patterns that seem less difficult.
Damn that was good 👏🏾
I feel like it'd be more accurate to call this steps for problem solving, rather than decision making.
What’s the difference though?
@@yomama847 Maybe just semantics. But to me, "problem solving" involves better defined objectives, whereas "decision making" deals more with unknowns, ripple effects, and unintended consequences.
I agree this is problem solving. Decision making is choosing which girlfriend of the two to be your wife.
@@RDB24b 😂😂😂
Agree
All 3 steps stated at 9:24
0:00 Step 1
3:23 Step 2
6:23 step 3
This is for the trick to making good choices.
Easier said than done to challenge the constraints.
Great presentation but it is more of problem solving than decision making tactics, nonetheless, we can learn lots from it.
I can find more stories like these and give you more steps.
3:00 step 1
5:50 the cobra effect
Remember sustainability...in theory a strategy can look good, but in practice we will always hit bumps we have to tweak as we go along, course correction....a lot of theoretical ideas are great places to start from, but there will always be practical parts of the equation that are missing and means that the original plan is not sustainable for the length of time it was intended form. This is because of what he said, that there are factors beyond our control. We aren't even in control of our own selves because our environment and things we are subjected to affects us. Grow a strategy based on succession- doing what can be done in the moment with the resources available..go in a direction as an experiment, then reassess and change as needed
You have to recognize the constraints first.
yeah there are a lot of potential immeasurables and unknowns
sangat bagus dan bermanfaat
I was hoping by the end of this, I would be able to make a decision about whether or not to buy a motorcycle...
Now I'm afraid I'll end up in a river after miscalculating using the wrong units of measurement if I do buy it...
Sometimes the communication of 'outside the box' options to interested parties (e.g. an investor; your boss; etc) becomes part of the decision-making calculus.
Dustin -- thanks for watching the talk and providing your feedback!

Link where ?!
My friends Doesn’t this make you indecisive person though? Specially the premortem with the whole “what if..?” There are always might be a good and a bad on plan A vs plan B.
"would it surprise you to find out that the winning team didn't even use the money?" I was thinking that too! If you use the money, you might not get what back what you spent. There's a high change that you'd have less. And what could you do with five dollars? How is 5 dollars supposed to make you more money? Instead, just keep it
I am not sure if the time I spent watching this was worth it!
I wanted to stick through it but him saying constraints hinder innovative thinking is absolute nonsense. Sometimes working with little makes your brain work harder and you think more creatively and have to be more open minded.
You didn't understand him. The barriers INSIDE YOUR HEAD is what hinders innovative thinking. The example he gave was a group of students who all had the same outside restraints (the 5 dollar and time limit) and only one group thought outside of the box, winning the assignment.
This is a lame excuse by yourself to not stick something through
What box
Think of a time when you made a wrong or bad decision. Do you think you would have made a better decision if you followed at least one of the steps suggested by the speaker in the presentation?
Great presentation and comms exercise... but isn't this good ol' risk management and evidence-based decision making? in 3 steps with catchy names? That was my impression.
Rhohinton Mystery is a book about India and India has Ligonier Ministries Reformation Bibles available :-)
Matthew Confer sounds just like Adam Grant
O and ... Sully ... wow!
Begin with what barriers are holding you back. Stop there. And see what is possible
Consider what failures would look like before you ever go down a path. Brainstorm how you might fail and in ways you might fail.
As for his company.
so... they maximized the Opportunity they had... which was the Presentation! So... MAXIMIZE the OPPORTUNITY you have!!!
I couldn't understand a word.
same
Good stories to use as examples of basic steps to decision making processes. A bit formulaic in approach, but overall good advice. Take-away points in single words - think, consider, check. One minor comment to the speech for the speaker's consideration; the species of bird that collided with the airline is the Canada Goose. The geese, not able to have a concept of nationality, are not "Canadian". Thank you.

they sold the rights to the presentation to the rest of the class to a Company in town?!? How exactly?
The team had to present a presentation to their class on what they did with the 5dollars, so that particular team allowed and charged a company to present a presentation in front of Stanford students of their class. ( The company agreed in the hope that those students may join their company after graduation)
@@akshitatak775 Thank you, that is so much clearer.
For all those people who are still thinking about how that team won: The winning team sold the rights of that presentation to all the students in the call and a company. They told the company that can get brilliant employees from Stanford. To students they told that they can get a job opportunity. Correct me if I am wrong 🤔
I did not understand that story. Anybody can tell me please
... a company that was more than happy to Pay them for the privilege of pitching to them why they should come work for that company?!? wow. that IS thinking outside the box...
wait so they had a presentation to show off how they made the most money, but instead they used that platform to endorse this company to the class by saying you should work for them or is it that if you pay us now we will work for you?
I wonder if they got to keep the money
It goes to show that using such ideas only ruin your case and praise the growth of it. Namely taking responsibility of it only praises it's 4 people and goes to show the habitual carelessness of the ladder which taking responsibility blames the athlete unattached to anything worth growing and frustrated when losing is a notable, respectful, and thought out plan of watching and causes much frustration unequitablly when surpassed the recessed mentally incampasitated, 13 year old hijacking of a atnt call representative confirming the location of the destination for the namely unit prophesied to arrive but with no warning.
whats the 3 steps?
I hope you enjoyed the talk...
1) Challenge The Constraints
2) Embrace A Pre-Mortem
3) Check The Basics
Most people don't make 1000s of decisions a day
is anyone from ullens watching lol
Too difficult to understand
Did we just watch a presentation on how to make money by doing a presentation?
Constraints? Like laws and damage to the environment?
So the first team created a pyramid scheme
Lol... profitable, but maybe not moral.
I do find it ridiculous, when they set 'rules' and yes constraints should be challenged but surely also not entirely dismissed in such circumstances as this? It's like that example of the challenge to throw a paper airplane the longest distance, and someone screwed up the paper and threw it. That's not clever, the contest was to throw a paper plane and not a piece of rubbish. The main problem with our society in this respect is that people are not listened to when they present new ideas.
Sucked said nothing
1.30 minutes in, I smell BS.
Just Do IT 🤡
What is Just Do It?
The idea that action trumps theory by a huge margin. Thinking, talking, and planning are good, but the greatest point of leverage for getting results is just doing it.
Why is it Important?
Without action you will not get any results. The reason you don't have what you want is probably because you aren't taking enough action.
Constraints? Like laws and damage to the environment?
