Topics
Christian Wheeler: 本课程的核心在于帮助人们在面对突发状况和压力时保持冷静和灵活。课程一开始就强调要学会在不适中感到舒适，焦虑本身并不可怕，可怕的是对焦虑的过度担忧。通过练习，学员可以学会在压力下保持冷静，并相信自己的头脑能够在那一刻找到合适的应对方法。他还强调了在面对失败时，要快速放下，专注于当下，不要过度纠结于过去的错误。失败是成功路上的必经阶段，应该以积极乐观的态度去面对。 此外，他还分享了在团队合作中如何提升创造力。他建议将团队成员提供的意见视为礼物，并在此基础上进行创造性地构建。遵循“yes and”原则，肯定他人的想法，并在其基础上进行扩展，可以激发更多创新性的解决方案。在创意过程中，要区分构思阶段和评判阶段，在构思阶段不应过早评判想法，而应专注于想法的生成。 Matt Abrahams: 作为访谈主持人，Matt Abrahams 主要负责引导话题，提出问题，并对 Christian Wheeler 的观点进行总结和补充。他积极参与讨论，并分享了自己的一些经验和看法，例如 Failure Fridays 的实践。
