A short motivational YouTube video (by Codie Sanchez) explaining the Pygmalion effect: a 1968 study told teachers that randomly selected children had high potential; eight months later those children showed IQ gains (verbal +2, logical +7, overall +4). The narrator argues that leaders' genuine belief in people's potential can create a self-fulfilling prophecy.
