How to help those we care about thrive | Derry Long | TEDxBozeman

Learn the four behaviors that provide a healthy environment where those we care about can thrive. Based on PhD research, case studies, and personal stories, these four behaviors are actions any of us can do. Derry Long was born in North Dakota and raised on a farm. Derry has had a life-long interest in how organizations work and don't work. After approximately 30 years in the church world, Derry left to live in England and complete Ph.D. work at the University of Birmingham. His research project was how a social system creates and sustains an empowering social environment. Derry studied churches, non-profits and businesses. Since empowerment is based on the basic DNA of all humans, how they are empowered is very similar, regardless of the type of organization. Following his time in England, Derry returned to establish a consulting company to help people developing empowering environments. Derry has been married to Marcy for 45 years, and they have three children and four grandchildren. Derry loves reading, visiting the used bookshops of London and elsewhere, hiking, camping and major league baseball. 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
