Julien S. Bourrelle

We all see the world through cultural glasses, by changing glasses you can change the way you perceive the behaviours of others. Julien S. Bourrelle believes that we have the opportunity to increase the competitiveness of businesses and to create a better functioning multicultural society by helping people to communicate better across culture.

Julien is a Canadian rocket scientist who lived within various cultures these last 15 years. It has shaped his perception and expectations. His “MondĂ„â€ project provides tools to communicate better across culture, helping us to be more aware of how our behaviours can be interpreted differently than intended by people of other cultures.

Julien is a bestselling author and has a double MSc. in Astrodynamics. He dropped out of his doctoral studies after the success of MondÄ and his books. He has lived in Norway since 2009.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

Ironically some of the comments in this section more or less proves his point. It's obviously a light hearted look at cultural misunderstandings and what happens in those moments - not a reason to feel the need to stump up and 'defend' a culture. It's fascinating some people thought the old woman in the story must be 'mad' - she just sounds amusing, incredibly human and warm hearted. Good for her.

Having friends from other cultures makes me more creative. In fresh ways about space and how people create their own world and environment. It is best way to connect between creative thinking and cross cultural relationships

As a Chinese, NEVER heard about this behaviour. In China, if we meet this case, we mainly will feel shocked, weird and even be offended. We are educated leave the seats to old people and people who need help in our culture. I'm not sure if the reaction of the woman is from her village culture or just some individual "joke".

This really hit me hard. I just realized the difference among the different perspectives that collide when helping or rewarding the weakest or the strongest. I have seen these actions and learned about them, but only from my country’s point of view. Is pretty interesting to know how other people think. And thank you very much! I really appreciated your video!

Wow, this is one of the greatest Ted Talk I've watched! Merci pour ton humour, ta sensibilité, la finesse, ton empathie. On en a besoin dans le monde! Je suis née au Québec et je vis présentement au Pérou. Si je pouvais trouver un fruit pour la culture du Québec, je dirais une pomme, car d'abord il y a tellement de couleurs, de saveurs et de différentes variétés. Pour la culture du Pérou, je dirais la papaye, car la pelure est vraiment mince (boundaries!!!). Pour terminer, je travaille en ligne avec des étudiants d'un peu partout dans le monde car j'enseigne l'anglais langue seconde. La plupart de mes élÚves souhaitent gagner en confiance dans leur expression orale afin de voyager et d'ouvrir des portes au niveau professionnel. Merci, je vais leur partager la vidéo et en discuter avec eux!

It's impossible for that old Chinese woman to sit on him! As a Chinese, I argued that most people would be appreciated for him leaving the seat, although there may be some unpleasant behaviour conducted by some people, such as not expressing thanks. Also, we welcome people in their own cultural background and many foreigners come to China to prepare for personal success. We would not be surprised when looking a foreigner with long hair on arms. I could not doubt that he once left his seat for an old Chinese woman, but he unfairly demonstrates the truth to support his idea.

As a chilean who have been on exchange twice in Norway, I can totally understand and relate to everything he said.

This is just a misunderstanding. Chinese people are used to being modest. when she said no. she is just trying to be polite. What you need to do is continue to give up your seat. I know, sometimes it is confusing.

I am Chinese and I live in Sichuan Province. I never experienced or heard about the behavior of that old Chinese woman you mentioned. That's not part of our culture or custom. Maybe it's just one strange woman's strange behavior. If you are a scientist, then you should learn to be more prudent and then you will figure out that you are not experiencing the real local culture. I really doubt that you are lying. If we Chinese experience the same situation, we will ALSO feel uncomfortable and shocked as well as offended.
