2000
Per què desafortunadament,

for menhomes,
34

01:47
sleepdormir deprivationprivació has becomeconvertir-se en a virilityvirilitat symbolsímbol.
35

3000
no dormir s'ha convertit en un símbol de virilitat.
01:51
I was recentlyrecentment havingtenint dinnersopar with a guy

2000
Fa poc sopava amb un tío
01:53
who braggedes va vanagloriar that he had only gottenaconseguit
37

que fanfarronejava d'haver dormit només
01:55
fourquatre hourshores sleepdormir the night before.
38

quatre hores la nit anterior.
01:57
And I feltsentia like sayingdient to him -- but I didn't say it --
39
102000
3000
I vaig tenir ganes de dir-li - tot i que no ho vaig dir -
02:00
I feltsentia like sayingdient, "You know what?
40
105000
2000
tenia ganes de dir-li, "Saps que?
02:02
If you had gottenaconseguit fivecinc,
41
107000
2000
Si n'haguessis dormit cinc,
02:04
this dinnersopar would have been a lot more interestinginteressant."
42
109000
3000
aquest sopar hagués estat molt més interessant"
02:07
(LaughterRiure)
43
112000
3000
(rialles)
02:10
There is now a kindamable of sleepdormir deprivationprivació
44
115000
2000
Hi ha un nou tipus de privació del son
02:12
one-upmanshipsuperioritat.
45
117000
2000
superior.
02:14
EspeciallyEspecialment here in WashingtonWashington, if you try to make a breakfastesmorzar datedata,
46
119000
3000
Especialment aquí, a Washington, si intentes quedar per esmorzar,
02:17
and you say, "How about eightvuit o'clocka les onze?"
47
122000
2000
i proposes, "Que tal sobre les vuit?"
02:19
they're likelyprobablement to tell you, "EightVuit o'clocka les onze is too latetard for me,
48
124000
2000
és probable que et diguin, "Les vuit és massa tard per mi,
02:21
but that's okay, I can get a gamejoc of tennistennis in
49
126000
2000
però bé, puc fer un partit de tenis i
02:23
and do a fewpocs conferenceconferència callstrucades and meettrobar-se you at eightvuit."
50
128000
3000
un parell de teleconferències i trobar-nos a les vuit."
02:26
And they think that meanssignifica
51
131000
2000
I es pensen que això significa
02:28
that they are so incrediblyincreïblement busyocupada and productiveproductiu,
52
133000
3000
que estan increïblement ocupats i son tan productius,
02:31
but the truthveritat is they're not,
53
136000
3000
però la veritat és que no,
02:34
because we, at the momentmoment,
54
139000
2000
perquè en aquests moments,
02:36
have had brilliantgenial leaderslíders
55
141000
2000
hem tingut líders brillants
02:38
in businessnegocis, in financeFinances, in politicspolítica,
56
143000
3000
en negocis, finances, política,
02:41
makingelaboració terribleterrible decisionsdecisions.
57
146000
3000
prenent decisions terribles.
02:44
So a highalt I.Q.
58
149000
2000
Així que un C.I. alt
02:46
does not mean that you're a good leaderlíder,
59
151000
3000
no significa que siguis un bon lider,
02:49
because the essenceessència of leadershiplideratge
60
154000
2000
perquè l'essència del lideratge
02:51
is beingser ablecapaç to see the icebergiceberg
61
156000
2000
és ser capaç de veure l'iceberg
02:53
before it hitsaccessos the TitanicTitànic.
62
158000
3000
abans de que xoqui amb el Titanic.
02:56
And we'vetenim had farlluny too manymolts icebergsicebergs
63
161000
3000
I hem tingut massa icebergs
02:59
hittingcolpejar our TitanicsTitanics.
64
164000
2000
xocant amb els nostres Titanics.
03:01
In factfet, I have a feelingsensació
65
166000
2000
De fet, tinc la sensació
03:03
that if LehmanLehman BrothersGermans
66
168000
2000
que si els Germans Lehman (Lehman Brothers)
03:05
was LehmanLehman BrothersGermans and SistersGermanes,
67
170000
2000
haguessin estat els Germans i Germanes Lehman.
03:07
they mightpotser still be around.
68
172000
2000
potser encara estarien per aquí.
03:09
(ApplauseAplaudiments)
69
174000
3000
(aplaudiment)
03:12
While all the brothersgermans were busyocupada
70
177000
2000
Mentre els germans estaven ocupats
03:14
just beingser hyper-connectedhiper-connectats 24/7,
71
179000
3000
només estant hiper connectats dia i nit
03:17
maybe a sistergermana would have noticednotat the icebergiceberg,
72
182000
3000
potser alguna de les germanes podria haver vist l'iceberg,
03:20
because she would have wokendespertar up from a seven-and-a-half-set- i -un-meitat - or eight-hourvuit hores sleepdormir
73
185000
4000
perquè s'hauria llevat d'una dormida de set hores i mitja o vuit hores
03:24
and have been ablecapaç to see
74
189000
2000
i podria haver vist
03:26
the biggran pictureimatge.
75

2000
el panorama.
03:28
So as we are facingenfrontant-se
76
193000
2000
Així que tal com ens enfrontem
03:30
