This is a YouTube video titled "Real Empowerment: Find That Spark | Women of HubSpot" containing a monologue or talk focused on empowerment and inspiration, emphasizing the importance of understanding individual motivations to effectively empower others. The speaker references George B. Thomas as an example but does not indicate a conversation with him.
I think empowerment is different for everybody. And I say that because when you think about it from a learning and development lens, right, how you empower anybody is going to be totally different from the last person that you worked with. So if you don't figure out what it is about George B. Thomas that gets him excited and inspired, that's not going to happen, right? So I think that's what I love about teaching so much. At the core of it is figuring out what's that little spark of inspiration for someone. For any of our Disney fans out there takes one spark of inspiration, right? That that little piece will be what happens. And I think a lot of times people say, like, how do I go empower someone versus saying I actually need to go find that little switch and turn that on for somebody else? They're going to be excited and inspired and empower themselves. And that is so much more powerful and impactful than trying to figure out how do you do that for everybody, right?
