TED TALK Tuesday #269: The hidden power of siblings
TED continues to spread ideas and help us all be better critical thinkers. Watching, listening and talking about TED Talks is a popular pastime for many in the CN&CO community. We visit TED.com regularly to clear our heads, have a laugh, learn or get inspired. TED Talks open our minds, spark new ways of thinking and can lead to some very interesting conversations and business opportunities. Each week we pick a favourite and publish it on a Tuesday, because we like how “TED Talk Tuesday” sounds. It’s also a way that the CN&CO team play their part in spreading ideas and helping to make the world a better place. Today’s talk was chosen by Colin Ford.
My brother and his daughters are in Joburg at the moment visiting from the Cayman Islands. It’s been so awesome to spend time with them, together with my sister and her family, and various other relatives and old friends. It got me thinking about siblings and the bonds that bind us. Being with my siblings is always awesome. Being with both of them together is exponentially awesome!
I found this TED Talk about siblings really interesting. Jeffrey Kluger discusses research into sibling bonds – the things that keep us close and the things that make us fight like cats and dogs when we’re young.
