- Julien argues how we see the World through cultural glasses. By changing the glasses you can change the way you interpret the World.
Julien is the founder of Mondå, a project that helps Norwegians benefit from cultural diversity while supporting talented foreigners in their efforts to adapt and connect with Norway. He is educated as an astronautical engineer and is currently completing a doctoral degree in Norway. He is originally from Canada and speaks English, Norwegian, French and Spanish. He has been active in higher education policy at the European level, at the national level in Norway and locally at different institutions. He became the first foreign board member of the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). Other positions include the Norwegian national research committee (UHR), the board of the national Norwegian doctoral organisation and the presidency of NTNU’s doctoral organisation.

"The lens through which your brain sees the world shapes your reality". we get to know the surroundings through our culture glasses, shaped by our backgrounds. It's important to learn the specialties of diverse cultures, such as social distance and politeness.
you literally gave me the answer instead of watching a 12 minutes long video and think of a complete answer that surely will take time. thank you.
Thank you 😅

Great lecture! Thank you, Julien.
I find this idea very interesting. It's something that I've often overlooked when encountering cultural differences. We all see the world through our own cultural perspective, which can lead to misunderstandings.
Recently, I have been learning tips to apply cultural anthropology to businesses.
I could receive a lot of tips from this great lecture!

LOLOLOLOL!!!!
Too much diversity isn't good for you. Too much of anything is harmful. What about normalcy?
Haahaa

That was amazing! Cultural glasses, the best term used for different perceptions we get from cultural differences.

As an international student doing placement in Sydney, this video is absolutely amazing. I’ve been in the country for 2 years, literally struggling to understand how to interpret what people is saying, understanding social norms and cues. This video would have been great if I had it in the beginning 🎉😂
good luck !
I learned a lot from this video. I often see the world through my “cultural glasses”. Im open to seeking out more diverse settings and relationships for growth purposes.
Amazing point of view about the culture around the world.
Beautifully said, super brilliant, absolutely amazing; please take my words as compliments. American-Mexican woman with Puerto Rican children and Serbian husband.

I`m glad my teacher made me watch this, for as this video explains the culture differences it helps me to understand even further my own culture
Great :)
My Inernational communication teacher made me watch this and it's the most helpful video I've seen on this topic really))
can anyone of you explain me the concept of contradiction, complain and confrim that he mentioned here?

I appreciate your lucid explanation

Sometimes the end does not justify the means. Discrimination is discrimination regardless of the term used to to justify it. People have a misunderstanding of equality.
I must say that was explained in a very simplist easy to understand manner....well done!
It didn't have Heaven culture
Wonderful, loved the way the cultural diversity is explained. It's all about perception and reality for which, I ask my students to learn to see the things the way they are rather than trying to see the things the way you like them to be seen.
Agree!
It didn't have Heaven's culture.
I believe that culture is so often confused with 'racism' and we are behaving not out of dislike for another race, but simply as a result of our cultural programming....making us feel uncomfortable with different behaviours. When not understood much tension arises.
Melody Tomlinson you explained it perfectly. It’s the barrier of miscommunication that causes the initial frustration, and the feeling of helplessness that raises this tension. However, it is the decision following, the decision to continue the effort in breaking down that barrier or deciding stepping out of your comfort zone and making the effort to understand and be understood isn’t worth it. It’s the effort to find the courage to both embrace and abandon ignorance and step into another’s shoes. That was a lot haha and I don’t know if I even found the right words but I tried!
Sadly culture is the spread of all things we learn and teach between ourselves, be it negative or positive. So racism can be a part of a culture if it is common enough to be considered as such. The problem lies when people take their current believes/culture to be absolute so they prevent themselves from evolving, mentally seeing ahead or learn new things for the betterment of their people, or what it is known as ignorance.
@@alegriart i agree with you. That is why i had this question in my head, when this will end?
Lauren Beals k
that aside. pure racism is real. you don't want to hurt someone, or deny them of opportunity or call them racial slurs because of "cultural miscommunication"
Thank you and God bless
Merci pour ce partage 🙂
the diversity in these lenses are perfect for culture building. We grow more from these interactions with our individual lenses on because we begin to question the standards that are set on our personal lenses, make new opinions against or in support of them. Challenging and questioning even ourselves is important to mental growth.
Wonderful and relevant info according to this video may people could relate from different culture
wow what a great lecture! love it.

I think it is an interesting insight. It was what I had sometimes missed when I see differences. We all have our own cultural glasses differed from another culture. However, the important thing is that we should try not to have prejudice against differences. Of course, our perspective can be changed to theirs.
Also, I was interesting that behaviors haven't been made by chance. Someone's behaviors are affected by his or her circumstances involving lots of cultural factors. We should not judge other's behaviors through our own cultural glasses. Remember that to understand one's behaviors means to know their cultures more accurately.
What if there is a culture that considers important to judge other cultures, or to have prejudices against them? Could that point of view be respected too?

So true and interesting what you say! Something similar happened to me yesterday!!! I grew up in North Carolina where nothing is more important than smiling, being friendly, and speaking in this protocol that basically says> If you are well educated, or not, you never ask a question until you have smiled, greeted the person with chit chat and then ask the question. After leaving NC I lived in Miami, and South American, learned Latin American Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese. Now I live in Madrid, Spain. I laughed that one of your talks you said people are friendly in Spain perspective is so interesting, bc `I've never heard anyone say that. I hear constantly that they are rude. Living here I've changed as well. Here's what happened.
After living in Spain and finding people here much less chatty and less friendly than the US Southern culture, and Latin America ''save Argentina' I too have become a bit drier. Yesterday I was looking for a street in downtown Madrid. A young man was hauling something that looked heavy on a cart, dolly thing. I figured he must do deliveries, he was not a tourist so he may know the street I was looking for. Thinking his load may be heavy I was trying to be considerate, take less time so not to bother him, and because after living in Spain I'm a bit more direct. I blurted out in Spanish,,,,Do you know where Calle Horteleza is? The boy stopped. Looked straight into my eyes and said very seriously, BUENOS DIAS. I knew right away he was South American and I was acting a bit barbaric for just blurting out a question. I smiled, he did not, and I said in Spanish, oh...it's because you are not from Spain. He said, WHAT????? You are not saying Good morning bc I'm not from Spain??? I said, no no no no....I didn't say good morning bc in Spain no one says that. But, you are totally right. The proper way to communicate is to first say good morning, excuse me, blah blah blah. I was rude. He said yes, you were. (certainly a New Yorker or perhaps someone from Norway would have thought I was too friendly...perspective.
I thanked him. I thanked him for reminding me of who I am. And, no he did not know where the street was. I liked the lesson.
Another point. In Spain they say HOLA only when you walk into a store. You think that is friendly. I am used to it now, but in the beginning I found it sort of rude, or uneducated, because I too am used to more formal greetings. Good afternoon, may I help you, how are you? etc. Hola to me sounded like, I am so annoyed you just waked in here and that I have to work here. Don't get me wrong. I love living here! However, after being married to a Spaniard for 20 years, I still feel totally offended if I say Would you like some water, and he says no, instead of no thank you. It is considered to me the rudest thing anyone can do. Crazy, huh? Changing my chip....
Teda Melero great story of perspective! I enjoyed reading and I agree it’s our perceptions
Hi
I enjoyed thanks for sharing
i´m norwegian, and could not have been living in north carolina. sounds exhausting
Thanks for sharing your stories. They resonate with what i talk about in this short lecture. Hope you continue to enjoy Madrid!
This is such a great insight. We should spend more time understanding different cultures, that way we connect with our fellow brothers!

This video could be the beginning of an interesting study related to the sociology of emotions. It could be research about how people use them to label other people's emotions and determine their relationship to a conversation and (maybe) the cultural paradigm in which they grew up.
To be honest, I have never thought about how the ideas of equality of opportunity and result correlate. Might be worth reading/seeing more on this topic.
It's social psychology.
Good and relevant information as to how should one relate to people from different cultures. cultural lens indeed influence us in so many ways.
Thanks!

I had to stop by describing Norway as tiny little country and I found that it is almost the same size of the UK :) but no one usually describe UK as tiny little country, perhaps an island. I think the perception of country size is different when you live in big countries like Canada.
I live in Indonesia, to me every country is just as big as Indoensia, so sometimes i am surprised knowing that a country somewhere else in the world just as big as the city where i live.
I call UK a UN outcast. They need to start calling Andorra a tiny country, not Norway.

As a seasoned presenter Management Consultant and global professional in CQ this lecture is one I have huge argument with! What about industry type, generational gaps! Types of communication!

As a peruvian, i really apreciate silent moments with friends. I was used to them in Perú. But here in Spain those moments seem to do not exist. People here get akward if you dont talk or they think youre uncomfortable.
Im writing this because this dude said that most of us wouldnt compenhend the scandinavian point of view of a friendship. Well, maybe the scandinavians are a LOT more silent, but we southamericans can get comfortable with being in total silent next to friends.
the teacher made me do this so fun!!
In 1:36, i heard the word "social bubble" . I don't make sure that all I heard was exact. Can you explain to me the meaning of the word "social bubble"?
You can think of it like any other "bubble." When people "live in a bubble," it means that they are surrounded by people who think like them. Many people move to other countries and only interact with people who are also foreigners, so they are "in a social bubble," which means they don't talk to local people :)
I loved this video ... thank u sir
Love from india
See we Indians just say what we feel without hesitation like you did. You can go through the chats and see how open Indians are about their opinions ,and I love that. The reason I am saying this is because I had the exact same opinion about the video and it's nice to know that someone else has the same feeling and perspective.

I think that's a very simplified way of thinking if you haven't been exposed to different cultures or at least learnt about them. Most of this talk is really based on a conference where intellectual or intelligent people but are uneducated about different cultures and behaviours. I am very au fait with global social cultures but it doesn't mean I like them all eg I hate ppl almost breathing on me when waiting in a line in the supermarket. Thank goodness Covid has put a stop to that

love the studies of culture,
Situation that happened to me: My Spanish is Mexicanized and Americanized, so when I hear a Spanish speaker from Spain, hard for me to understand, so I must repeat what they have said and hear myself say their words, please do not take offense, trying to understand you better, is a compliment.

I think diversity is something we have no control of not to mention to enforce it ! ,but I agree with him when he speaks of changing cultural glasses for further better understanding of others from whatever background culture they have. I think ACCEPTING DIVERSITY is a much better term to use than ENFORCING DIVERSITY.
As a child, I lived in Hurdal Norway, and I remember how everyone friendly everyone was, how people stopped and spoke to you and asked how is your grandma and other small talks. This new lack of conversation is a modern-day choice of not wanting to talk, but ponder on your own selfish ideals of the day that last half a minute! You are part of that problem of creating closed up independence.

I believe this to be true in the older generations, but as the world becomes a smaller place, these cultural boundaries become less and less pronounce with the people who are more liberal/open and accept change. This is usually more common with younger people.

I think someone should create a complete text for every TEDtalk, so that students who are asked to see it don't have to spend so much time.XD
If you're on a computer, near the "save to playlist button", there are 3 dots that you can click on and if you choose "open transcript" you'll have everything in text, complete with timestamps. I think this only works on videos with subtitles though.

This guy has a Norwegian accent even! Great speech
no, its more French... but as he said, he grew up in french canada.. but both france and norway speak at the same part of the mouth so the english accents can sound simular

Trying to quantify human qualities is too difficult. Not that we shouldn't try but ... in all of these examples an important factor is how genuine the intent behind the communication is regardless of culture. It makes a huge difference.

He forgot to mention actually there are 5 ways so he missed 2. #4) observe and continue being yourself and #5) be yourself still but show gratitude when you see the behavior you like seeing and ignore the behaviors you don't like seeing. Then eventually they usually conform to adapt into what you like.

The bus stop made me laugh - here in Spain an old granny would see a full bench, elbow her way in anyway, and wriggle around until she has enough room and everyone else is almost falling off! However, don’t agree with the comment about personal space - when we feel uncomfortable, most of us realize that it’s because the other person is too close, we’re just too polite to say it, hence the dance.

How do people in Norway make friends?
In NYC natives generally do not speak to strangers. Some of us don't talk to neighbors. I have been told that in rural areas, small towns speak to each other. Rural=homogenous. Urban=heterogeneity.
