I love how his name, Tayo, translates to 'We' or 'us' in my language (Filipino). It matches him well.

Understanding the differences around you, then finding the commonalities around them is art of diplomacy. Embrace art of diplomacy 1. Get knowledge - To collect information - Observe things around you - what makes people feel good and what makes people feel sad. Can be a game. Coming together for a common goal. 2. By being an active listener - Establish mutual trust to foster a positive collaboration - learn how to listen to obtain info. Goal is to understand. 3. Become an active member of community - widens your perspective and able to approach problem with better perspective Learn culture competence skill World is bigger than you. If you want to win at it. You need to understand it.

Radha A Thank you very much and I certainly hope so!

Coming from a TEDx organizer: this is the type of speech we love!

I arrived here because I wanted to learn how to use my difference to make a difference. Tayo spoke to my summer internship class at Moody’s Corporation in 2016-it’s great to see him across LinkedIn and KZread spreading a message, posing questions. His public speaking has improved tremendously; no stage is too big or small. Keep going, Tayo!!

currently studying my degree in Political Science and International Relations. This motivates me so much ❤️

Well elaborated the art of diplomacy. Decode the differences and seek commonalities.

“Understanding the differences around you and finding the commonalities that exist within them” Wow. I suddenly want to be a diplomat now. Amazing.

Diplomacy is an art not everyone can master. No amount of motivational speeches or education can elevate you to be a great diplomat. Either you're born with it or you're not as good as the others.

In 2 years I’ll take my exam. Working with my head down, god bless for all others who want their dream job as diplomats. Iwill update here if i clear or not,

Hey, after listening your talk,, I'm able to clear my self about diplomatic... I mean how to understand environment,, and make,,, points,,,

Undrestand differences around you and find the commonalities within them. First is by collecting informations and get knowlege. Bt reading news and getting informed. Second is to be an active listener. Third is to be an active member of the community. Constantly put yourself where you're the odd one. Putting yourself in a group different than you help you understand difference and introduce to a bigger world.

Tell my why this was more helpful for my mental health than a therapy session

This speech is very amezing ,I really appreciate this speech

Sad. He was.. so good so gentle and so loving. As a child.

Exactly my father was a history teacher, and my mother works retail. And we lived in a Small Town. But I always showed the World is Small but also big and you got to work with all of it to be successful even not as a Diplomat. And during this Virus I am working on Lamguage Learning because I now have a goal to be a Diplomat. Funny thing is this is a good time to see that Global Commonality. In a Pandemic and Road Signs most of those are the same too. Also it's all Common Sense.

Impatient Samurai so one thing to always keep in mind is that reading wide and being curious is very important. They sound simple but I cannot tell you how often knowledge about random facts helped my dad build rapport. You also want to always be able to speak about things from a macro and micro perspective. So no matter what your opinion might be on a particular issue, be able to articulate the multiple sides before offering an opinion. A good show to watch to see example of this would be Madam Secretary.

he seems speaking about my dad

neat

My son was emotionally beat up in schools before he ever became what u made him today. His skin was darker.
