From Perfect to Human | Ernest Yeong | TEDxUWCEA Youth

What do cars, office dynamics, and 90's boy bands have in common? In this engaging talk, Ernest challenges the conventions of a strong leader by showing how vulnerability can be transformed from a weakness into a workplace superpower. Using analogies and real-life insights, he explores how embracing our imperfections can create stronger teams, foster innovation, and build authentic connections. Buckle up for a fresh perspective on what it really means to lead with humanity! "From Perfect to Human," explores the power of vulnerability in leadership, teamwork, and innovation. Using an analogy of two car brands, you highlight how embracing human imperfection leads to resilience and success. Vulnerability is not weakness—it fosters authenticity, real connections, and a culture of trust. It enhances innovation by promoting collaboration and eliminating micromanagement. Leaders who admit faults and empower others to build more effective, motivated teams. However, vulnerability must have boundaries to be productive. Your speech encourages people to embrace imperfection, own their mistakes, and foster real, human relationships. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
