Translator: Quan Sun Reviewer: Denise RQ

00:11

Thank you. Thank you.

00:14

Beyond boundaries.

00:16

What a theme, huh?

00:18

Now, when I think of boundaries,

00:20

I think of rules, regulations, and restrictions.

00:25

And I think of the parents, and the teachers, and the supervisors,

00:30

who hold us accountable with regard to those boundaries.

00:34

That's not a bad thing.

00:36

Yeah, I know, if you're like me, I need supervisors,

00:38

I need someone holding me accountable to do the right thing.

00:42

But beyond boundaries is something different.

00:45

I think of those leaders, those teachers, those supervisors, those parents

00:50

who inspire us to go beyond the call of duty,

00:55

to do more than we have to,

00:57

to do it not because they tell us, but because we want to.

01:03

I would like to share with you

01:04

what the research says about how to make that happen.

01:08

And not just for other people, but for yourself.

01:12

Here is the deal, how could we inspire people and ourselves to be self-motivated?

01:20

There is another word. It's called "empowerment".

01:23

You've heard that word, right?

01:24

Now, the management definition of empowerment is,

01:27

"Get it done. Just get it done.

01:29

With fewer resources and less time, I empower you, make it happen."

01:34

I'm talking about feeling empowered.

01:37

That's different.

01:38

Feeling empowered is when you're self-motivated.

01:41

Now, if you want to know if you feel empowered,

01:44

or if your child, your student, your worker feels empowered,

01:49

ask them three questions.

01:51

If they say yes to these three questions, they will feel empowered.

01:55

And by the way,

01:56

this is not based on common sense, this is based on research.

01:59

But you've all been there, so it'll feel like common sense.

02:04

Question number one: can you do it? Albert Bandura calls it self-efficacy.

02:09

Do you believe you can do it?

02:12

Do you have the time, the knowledge, and the training

02:16

to do what we are asking you to do?

02:18

If you answer yes, good.

02:20

Second question: will it work?

02:23

Do you believe that what we're asking you to do, the process, will work?

02:28

Albert Bandura calls that response-efficacy:

02:32

believing that the behavior would lead to the ultimate outcome.

02:36

By the way, that takes education.

02:39

We have to show them the data, we might show them some theory,

02:42

we show them, teach them why this might work.

02:46

I just used the word 'education'. Earlier, I used the word 'training'.

02:52

Is there a difference?

02:54

In elementary school, we call it education.

02:58

Middle school: education. High school: education.

03:02

College: higher education. (Laughter)

03:05

Then you go to industry, what do you call it?

03:07

Training.

03:08

You have your training department. There must be a difference.

03:13

Well, you know the difference.

03:15

Do you want your kids to have sex education or sex training?

03:19

(Laughter)

03:21

And your kids might answer the question differently.

03:24

(Laughter)

03:26

Because you know that training means you do the behavior and you get feedback.
