Mark is so charismatic, brilliant, and entertaining. Just love him and the rest of the Panel.❤
this is low key one of the best ted talks I've heard
it's wrong though lol all of the neurobioloy is wrong
@@niceguyy3815 Could you argue, make a case, or give the sources?
I LOVE the head nod without the usual “Thank you” at the end. It gives off “magician after he nails his magic trick” vibes (and so do the arms he uses as he walks off the stage). I love it! He is as much a performer as he is an intellectual, or at the very least, he has most definitely chosen to appear that way to us. Bravo.
Wow. Masterful. I'm at 16:15 and watching Marks descension from displaying competence, vulnerability and empathy in body language and facial expressions, to the opposite was awesome. Suddenly, no smile, minimal eye contact, hands down or in pocket, agitation, aggressive stance. Love it.
Amazing to watch isn't it .
I've become acquainted via UA-cam with Mark Bowden from his participation on The Behavior Panel. I think he's really smart, funny, and thoughtful. All of these qualities are displayed well in this TEDx Talk.
I find Mark and the Behavior Panel really interesting too. The only problem is that Mark is lying in this speech. One of the things he is forever pointing out on the Panel is when someone is showing a smile that they don't really mean and how it still registers on their face and that we can spot it at an instinctual level. Here (no matter what he states to the contrary) he truly likes people and his smile is authentic. Busted, Mark!
@@Laura-Lee or he did a really good job.
Mark is an astonishing communicator. It's almost as if you could switch the sound off and make out what he's saying.
I also think that Mark's consistent congeniality, his sense of humor, and great listening skills really enhance any dialogue in which he participates, and make for enjoyable listening.
Same! It's a pleasure to see him moving in a physical space outside zoom. Great talk.
In my opinion... He is right! I used to be authentic and realized that is was taking me nowhere. Being "inauthentic" does not mean being dishonest but changing our mindset for our own betterment.
Cesar.. DITTO... COMPLETELY Agree with your observation
Yes. Your "OWN" betterment. That says volumes about you without seeing your body to interpret it. The greatest advancements made by humans throughout history was, in the overwhelming majority of times, to help someone other than the creator and usually involved them making a huge personal sacrifice. But those who acted for themselves history has recorded as tyrants ... or not at all. When we compare Mark Bowden and Madame Curie in 100 years, which one will people still know about?
The more views this video gets, the more brilliant the world becomes.
I can't believe this hasn't made it onto the TED director channel. This is utterly amazing and groundbreaking, completely against the grain thinking and a revelation to me personally.
tdreamgmail I totally agree with you. Mark Bowden's presentation is one of the BEST I have seen on TEDx youtube videos. The mere 46,000 view is even more shocking! Mark is absolutely spot-on about how us humans act "indifferently" most of the time to protect ourselves; yet Mark effortlessly breaks our barriers and lets us into his big ideas. What a great presenter, even better message... (he should try out acting career too!)
I totally agree with you! Everyone has to see this. His presentation inspires me everytime when i see this TEDxTalk
ahhah exactly!
@@wlkf.727 He already did a stint as an actor. He now trains people how to speak in public, including G7 leaders.
Stay away from anyone who tells you "to succeed, you have to be fake".
This is a great counter-balance to the conventional messages of this era that being authentic and real is a one-way ticket to betterment. As with all betterment ideas, balance and intention is the often the best approach. Perhaps being inauthentic - but with good intentions - can become our authentic self with practice.
Not a good comparison. He is not talking about being authentic in the same way.
June 2016: 98K views? This should have 98 Million views - it's brilliant!
His work on the UA-cam Behavior Panel is interesting and fascinating as well!
mark Bowden is amazing. one of the best ted talk ever for me
Mark Bowden? I thought it was Colin Cowherd
This speech made, me want to be a better human.
Given that mankind is the most dangerous beast, Mark’s message of inauthenticity is a good one.
If you broadcast friendliness, you will find the world a much richer and beautiful place.
I broadcast happiness when I visited places and found the locals to be absolutely charming. I’ve also been places where I’ve been more guarded and found it indifferent.
Mark is so right. Doors will open for the friendly that don’t exist for the indifferent.
Mark has wonderful charisma, definitely friend category 😁
Totally agree with you 😃
Ditto
Love mark!
❤❤❤
Mark! I think you are wonderful! ❤
Mark trained as an actor. It tells. He knows how to manipulate and play an audience. He proved this when he did the Nike super bowl streaker advert. Can't be unseen.
holy moly! I totally just stumbled across this one when looking for body language videos! He is amazing! and that was brilliant! and ive watched Ted talks for years.
its also ironic how many teachers, lecturers, politicians and even public speakers have the body language that Mark intentionally adopted half way through the talk, and don't realise why nobody listens to them!!
I love Mark so much. He has a brilliant mind and way of communication. This was a great speech!
Did this guy become my new hero?
Just finished reading his book and already using these techniques with great success. I am a corporate trainer and am always speaking to people.
I guess we shouldn't go around letting people know how authentic we are. Excellent TEDx Talk.
Wow I remember him in our middle school play...always was destination ed for the stage 😉
Wow..................MIND BLOWN.....I can already see me applying this to my life and making a big change in it.
Great way to demonstrate the paradox and bring us back to our choices. We all yearn for connection but wait for others to start it or notice us. This brings home the profound effect of reaching out to the person near us. Well said
That was brilliant!! ate it up!! loved it! and thank you Mark Bowden
My teacher forced me to watch it
Your teacher is great
What course ? Let me guess psychology ? Or sociology?
When he was doing the predator bit towards the end, I could tell that I was on alert. I could tell what he was doing, but It was still working on me lol
Wonderful talk; I just read his book "winning body language" and Vloged about it.It was worth the time it took to read it! Thank you for all the great content Mark!
Mark, Thank you very much for this insightful and intelligent talk. This is something I have been trying to explain but of course, I have never been able to explain with articulation and expertise. There are so many times when we must be a bit fake to become a better community and become closer. I have a very dominant and aggressive personality but I am also very caring and loving. They can appear to be contradictory so I must do exactly what you did in the video just to make sure that the listener feels safe receiving my message. It does work.
As I am developing my business I will make sure that this TedTalk is required watching. You are brilliant and I am thrilled I found you and all of the group through The Behaviour Panel whom I found through Spidey. This kind of information is life-changing.
Brilliant. I normally don't get through the first 5 minutes of any TED talk......bravo. And thanks.
I am surprised this has such less and biased views. Beautifully explained and enacted.
A brilliant talk, implemented in my every day life and it's amazing the difference it makes.
I have been watching quite a few of Tedx videos today, and I must say Mark Bowden gives me the most pleasant "feel". He comes off as interesting, funny and genuine (even if he pretends to be). I am surprised the views of his video is so low comparing to some of the videos with very mediocre content and communication.
When he said "so..." in 16:03 I immediately burst with laughter and clapped for him while I'm watching on my laptop!!! He's brilliant in acting being authentic ''a predator''..
@gerald geriaafter he said he was manipulating us and he went straight to the aggressive tone saying that was his authentic behavior, I was like "hes about to pull the o'l switch-o-dic ko on us.
Hes got all the mannerisms of a magician and a hypnotist I dont trust him. Havent even got to the part where he switches in the video.
He kinda authentically just spoke to my soul. A life lesson for me.
You legend Mark. This speech literally saved my life ❤️
great speech, just great
This is a TEDx Talk, that doesn't only speak to those searching for authenticity, but also to the people who have seemingly found it. What a perfect guide to self reflection.
Knowledge, humor, and charisma. Thank you, Mark.
This is like the best Ted Talk i’ve ever watched
i should watch this every day before i go teach
I watch it every once in a while
bought his book and it's even better!!
I study body language for the same purpose you are trying to tell us .
Thanks a lot for this . i really get motivated.
I always joke that sincerity is the main thing: if you can fake that, you've got it made.
Honestly, the majority of this I already knew, sorta common sense I suppose, not all of it though. It's just sort of fascinating to hear someone put it all into just 20 minutes. Really good way of presenting too, I really follow it all and will be researching some more of Mark's work. Mark Bowden
If you turn the sound down on your tv/hulu/Netflix you will still be able to follow what is going on - even without words. Hollywood and politicians live and breathe this stuff. Body language can even be used for stress relief.
Tedx Talk is a place of knowledge ForFREE. I was smiling and could not help it! Thank you Mark!
ahmed ouajib Me too!!!☺
That's nice, and I am happy to see someone having the same feeling as I have had.
That's nice, and I am happy to see someone having the same feeling. Keep it up Suzanne!
I don't agree that I am indifferent, but I DO agree that talking to everyone changes your day.
