Instead of fearing uncertainty, we should regard it as an opportunity for growth, learning, and self-discovery. Embracing possibilities is not about striving for perfection, but about moving forward in the face of challenges and learning along the way. As we step into adulthood, this mindset will enable us to confidently deal with the possibilities in education, career, and life. Ultimately, uncertainty is not a flaw in the system of life, but a trait that propels our evolution and prosperity.

- 9:00The Foundation of Leadership | Johannes van Baardewijk | TEDxLitai Cambridge YouthIn this speech it will be explained how any group is defined by an ideal image of the perfect group member that lives in the minds of people in the group. This image is the group identity. The leader of the group is the group member that looks and behaves most like this ideal image. The leader replicates the ideal image. On the basis of this foundational model one can understand the identity of a leader, the actions of a leader, the power of a leader, and the presence of a leader.
