The secret lives of organizations | Samira Nuhanovic | TEDxSarajevoWomen

This talk explores the complex interplay between our personal histories and workplace dynamics, emphasizing how the invisible influences from our early lives shape our behaviors and interactions at work. Through relatable anecdotes, it highlights the assumptions we make about others and the meanings we attach to situations, revealing that the "invisibles" from our past often drive organizational culture and performance. The talk argues for the necessity of psychological safety in fostering open dialogue, innovation, and trust within teams. By promoting leadership that values emotional intelligence and soft skills, organizations can better navigate conflicts and create environments where all members feel valued, engaged, and empowered.
