Dare to Leverage Your Talent | Julian Herzog | TEDxEBS


Translator: Nada Qanbar Checker: Ines Azabou
welcome everybody.
Usually when you talk,
I’m talking about the business world,
As for risks,
Or a type of ecosystem institution.
But this time my talk will be focused on a personal level.
So I will talk about myself and how I have benefited from my talent.
25 years old.
So maybe I can not give you a recipe for how to benefit from your talent,
But I will tell you how I knew it.
I lived in different places.
I lived in Asia, where I was in Hong Kong, I lived in Kuala Lumpur, and in Shanghai.
Also recently, I lived in Croatia and in Paris.
The good thing now is
If you fail and your reputation is bad,
You can only leave the country, do not you?
But let us be more serious,
As my place of life changes, I have to adapt quickly.
Before I knew my talents, I knew my weaknesses.
This leads me to the next point.
Know your weaknesses, in this case, or what makes you weak.
Now, what’s happening with me:
I have the extent of the attention of the ornamental cms unfortunately.
I would forget all I learn in class.
I sit on my chair and take my tent away.
Once the school day ends, I forget everything I’ve studied.
The good news is:
As schools and places change every time,
I know exactly what I want:
Looking for the smartest person in the room,
I guarantee his help to me,
A kind of cooperation arises between us,
I try to walk Amory in school and grade.
I will tell you the story because my brother is here among the audience,
This is a true story.
Each time I get an acceptable score which is equivalent to the number three in the German system,
They looked at me as a hero at home.
“(Julian), I’ve got a passable, it’s great.”
This is normal and not great.
When my brother came home he got a good,
My parents asked him, “What happened, Mark?”
“Why did I get good and not excellent?”
My brother really feels sorry for that.
“What happened to me?” He says to himself.
“What did I do in order to get a good score?”
Once I realized
I meet all these talented people all the time
I can say that I have a “piercing eye”.
I did not enjoy it only in school days but also in the university,
More importantly, when my companies started.
I started to establish several companies,
Some failed, others are under development,
Some are profitable and go well.
The reason is: people.
The people around me were distinct and experts.
I am now a bit blind.
As I mentioned, since the power of my attention is weak,
It takes time for me to talk to them and understand them.
But once I understand them, I can make anyone else understand.
So things went.
It turned from theorizing to its practice with people
To ensure that everyone understand our products,
What we do and what nature of products.
So I moved from customization to generalization,
I do not know as they know,
But I could give a clear picture.
The other thing, be someone easy to talk to.
I am a person who is easy to talk to.
Sometimes I wonder when people talk to me,
“Why are they talking to me?”
They are much smarter, and they can do more things than I do.
Obviously, I act calmly.
“Talk to me, what’s the matter, let me see, I can solve the issue.”
Something I learned,
Working at the US Embassy
With different people – and interestingly interesting –
If you are someone easy to talk to, you will see many talents.
Give up your grocer,
Meet many talented and interesting people,
And then you can employ it and benefit from it.
It is as follows:
It is very important to discuss ideas.
I’m constantly discussing ideas.
My parents got bored with it because they always think,
“Here he is again, he’s thinking of a new company.”
But usually I do not.
You can not start founding companies every time once you have a great idea.
But once you talk to a lot of people about your ideas, they criticize you.
Do you understand, “Well,
I’m talking nonsense again, I sound silly. “
Or do you understand, “I intend to do something
The conditions are right for him. “
This leads me to something important:
If you know the place of your strength,
Talk about it publicly and be proud of it.
I see that my strongest point is finding talented people.
The second strongest point may lie in making a product
And the ability to market it when people.
I see Richard Branson as a great leader.
Known for his success in bringing together the wonderful people together
And then establish wonderful companies and great.
Steve Jobs, on the other hand,
He knows what people want
And then offers amazing products for the market.
So whatever your strength is,
Whether you are a light shadow and you have the ability to ease the tension of people,
Or if you are proficient in the accounts,
Or skillful in calculating taxes.
On the occasion of the mention of taxes, if you are skilled at it,
Please talk to me later, I have received some strange messages.
I do not know what’s going on. I’m joking.
Make the most of it, make sure people know about it,
They will come to you and talk about it with you.
You will then understand in what direction your career will proceed.
And what way should you go?
thank you.
