- How does diplomacy positively impact our daily lives? In what ways can many people today find that diplomacy, and what kind of promises for the future does it hold? Tayo Rockson is a powerful orator with a dream of bringing students, young professionals, and people all around the world the idea of diplomacy. Being the son of a diplomat, Rockson's experiences are powerful and observant, drawing connections between self-introspection and exterior socialization.
Tayo is the CEO of UYD Management, a strategic leadership and consulting firm that helps corporations improve their bottom line by incorporating diversity, inclusion, and social justice strategies. Tayo has spent over 20 years living and working in 4 continents. As a cross-cultural expert, he has spoken at the World Bank, United Nations Foundation among several other places. His work has been seen on NowThis News, Huffington Post, Entrepreneur, and other notable
sources.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
"The more afraid you are, the more dangerous you become" - Love it!!
I love how his name, Tayo, translates to 'We' or 'us' in my language (Filipino). It matches him well.
Aww thank you so much! I had no idea! In Yoruba it means joy and my full name Akintayo means The brave one/A warrior has brought us joy.
hey tayo
And more beautiful Tayo means 'Quality' in Somali.
@@TayoRocksonGod bless you for this insight .

*The less you understand, the more you fear, and the more afraid you are, more dangerous you become*
Yes indeed brother!
😢🤔 couldn't understand
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.
Unbelievably perfect speech.
Squipy O my goodness! Thank you!!!
Coming from a TEDx organizer: this is the type of speech we love!
Excellent speech, gentleman. This will motivate many young interested minds to choose the art of diplomacy as their career choice.
Radha A Thank you very much and I certainly hope so!
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 UA-cam 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.
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.
you really made me fell in love with diplomacy thank you, YOU ARE AWESOME
Absolutely loved watching this. Thank you to all stakeholders for making it possible

Same as you I also wanted to study deplomacy.

Amazing talk Tayo!! While I'm familiar with your story you still did a great job coherently presenting it and simultaneously dropping value, your delivery was amazing as well. Wish I could hit that like button more than once! :) Congrats on your first TEDx talk! ;)

Insightful one
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.

Thank you!!
Kathleen Blanchard thank you!!!
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.
Hey, after listening your talk,, I'm able to clear my self about diplomatic... I mean how to understand environment,, and make,,, points,,,
A rare example of actionable lessons, thank you! Joining a student club that has nothing to do with you! Brilliant!

Thank you!
Sometimes Diplomacy is the best way to go regarding to any international crisis instead of direct aggressive military attacks.
Perhaps most times (so many conflicts could have been averted otherwise).
Tayo repping LifeForte High, almost more than a decade later.
Not too surprised, the girls back then were also drawn to his charisma back then too
Diplomacy Excellence.
HollywoodFan21 ( Luis Villavicencio ) thank you so much!!!!

Will update if I make through it.
Even if I don't .
I will update.
Interesting. I wonder if he has any advice for someone going into the foreign offices field.
I might be able to answer your questions.
Tayo Rockson more or less of you know about anything one should have in order to be in that field.
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.
neat
he seems speaking about my dad

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