Brené Brown PhD
A researcher from University of Houston, Texas, Brené has featured on TED talks and the Oprah Winfrey show. She has written three excellent books. Here are links to transcripts (and videos) of two of her TED talks.
* Power of Vulnerability transcript
* Listening to Shame transcript
Both videos last around 20 minutes and an excellent way to spend your time over lunch. Both talks are incredibly relevant to what we do in our daily jobs and lives.
