I'm pretty sure this 10 minute video just changed my life forever and how I think about creating motivated work forces. Thank you for this. It has very simply answered one of my biggest "people" questions.
As I'm progressing through my education and expanding into the "real" world, the biggest challenge of mine are not the technical aspects of my profession, but the people and how THEY work. Most people seem to think about themselves when it comes to being productive or "getting the job done" and they completely forget that a small investment into others can go a long way. They'll often use the excuse of, "I can just do it myself faster", but completely ignore the fact that two competent people will undoubtedly accomplish more.
If you are one of those who complain about having to do everything yourself and it is overwhelming, consider devoting a portion of your time to teaching others to unload yourself.
Edit: If possible, do you have any other talks along the same lines you're willing to share?
