Topic: To outdo yourself - four scenes of human diversity.
Description: Humans are gregarious beings and as such they have a sense of certain cultural and social affiliation. Thus, a man is a cog in the machine, which without him operates less smoothly and inefficiently. When it comes to the world of social interactions, the majority of people opt for restraint and mistrust, limiting their activity to a constrained area of action. Frequently, people are afraid of being ahead of the crowd, so that their actions would not entail unpredictable consequences such as, for example, reactions of other people around them. Diversity is not at all a common feature in our society, and a clash of multiple varied interests is hardly present. The speaker will tell us how to combine various interests and environments, having only an open mind and full commitment in store. After all, it is diversity that makes men more creative!
