00:28
You know, when I was watching
the video again of the match,
the video again of the match,
7
16641
3897
Докато гледах отново записа на тенис мача
00:32
you must have felt
like the fate of the world's women
like the fate of the world's women
8
20562
4489
си мислех, че съдбата на жените по света е
00:37
was on every stroke you took.
9
25075
2598
в твои ръце, с всеки удар на ракетата.
00:40
Were you feeling that?
10
28446
1517
Така ли се чувстваше?
00:42
BJK: First of all, Bobby Riggs --
he was the former number one player,
he was the former number one player,
11
30835
3319
БДК: Боби Ригс беше бивш номер 1
00:46
he wasn't just some hacker, by the way.
12
34178
2002
не кой да е.
00:48
He was one of my heroes and I admired him.
13
36204
2882
Той беше герой за мен и аз го уважавах.
00:51
And that's the reason I beat him,
actually, because I respected him.
actually, because I respected him.
14
39848
3488
Затова го победих - всъщност от уважение.
00:55
(Laughter)
15
43360
1099
(Смях)
00:56
It's true -- my mom
and especially my dad always said:
and especially my dad always said:
16
44483
2596
Вярно е! Родителите ми са ме учили така:
00:59
"Respect your opponent,
and never underestimate them, ever."
and never underestimate them, ever."
17
47103
2878
"Уважавай противника си и никога не го подценявай. Никога."
01:02
And he was correct.
He was absolutely correct.
He was absolutely correct.
18
50005
2288
И той беше прав. Абсолютно прав.
01:05
But I knew it was about social change.
19
53245
2037
Знаех, че играя за социална промяна.
01:08
And I was really nervous
whenever we announced it,
whenever we announced it,
20
56962
3362
Бях много нервна заради огромната тежест
01:12
and I felt like the whole world
was on my shoulders.
was on my shoulders.
21
60348
2869
на тази отговорност.
01:15
And I thought, "If I lose, it's going
to put women back 50 years, at least."
to put women back 50 years, at least."
22
63241
5661
Мислех си: "Ако загубя
ще върна жените с поне 50 години назад."
ще върна жените с поне 50 години назад."
01:20
Title IX had just been passed
the year before -- June 23, 1972.
the year before -- June 23, 1972.
23
68926
3897
Законът за равноправие тъкмо беше приет
предишната година на 23 юни 1972.
предишната година на 23 юни 1972.
01:25
And women's professional tennis --
24
73892
2574
Девет от нас жени в професионалния тенис
01:28
there were nine of us who signed
a one-dollar contract in 1970 --
a one-dollar contract in 1970 --
25
76490
3273
имахме договори за по $1 през 1970 г.
01:31
now remember, the match is in '73.
26
79787
2099
А този мач беше през 73-та. Така че
01:34
So we were only in our
third year of having a tour
third year of having a tour
27
82454
3160
играехме професионално едва 3-та година,
01:37
where we could actually play,
have a place to compete and make a living.
have a place to compete and make a living.
28
85638
4260
участвахме в турнири и изкарвахме заплати.
01:41
So there were nine of us that signed
that one-dollar contract.
that one-dollar contract.
29
89922
2996
Договорите на девет от нас бяха за по 1 долар.
01:44
And our dream was for any girl,
born any place in the world --
born any place in the world --
30
92942
4969
Борихме се за това всяко момиче
родено където и да е по света
родено където и да е по света
01:49
if she was good enough --
31
97935
1558
стига да е достатъчно добро
01:51
there would be a place for her to compete
and for us to make a living.
and for us to make a living.
32
99517
4111
да може да се съзтезава и да се издържа от това.
01:55
Because before 1968,
we made 14 dollars a day,
we made 14 dollars a day,
33
103652
3760
Преди 1968-а изкарвахме по $14 на ден
01:59
and we were under the control
of organizations.
of organizations.
34
107436
2452
и бяхме зависими от организациите.
02:01
So we really wanted
to break away from that.
to break away from that.
35
109912
2193
Борихме се да променим това.
02:04
But we knew it wasn't really
about our generation so much;
about our generation so much;
36
112129
2716
Не ставаше въпрос само за нашето поколение
02:06
we knew it was about
the future generations.
the future generations.
37
114869
2050
а за тези поколения след нас.
02:08
We do stand on the shoulders of the people
that came before us, there is no question.
that came before us, there is no question.
38
116943
4005
Няма съмнение, че всички стоим на раменете на хората дошли преди нас.
02:12
But every generation
has the chance to make it better.
has the chance to make it better.
39
120972
2533
Но всяко поколение има шанс
за по-добро бъдеще
за по-добро бъдеще
02:16
That was really on my mind.
40
124265
2417
Така мислех.
02:18
I really wanted to start matching
the hearts and minds to Title IX.
the hearts and minds to Title IX.
41
126706
3619
Исках да играя в чест на равноправието.
02:22
Title IX, in case anybody doesn't know,
which a lot of people probably don't,
which a lot of people probably don't,
42
130349
3787
В случай че не знаете, което впрочем повечето не знаят е че,
02:26
said that any federal funds given
to a high school, college or university,
to a high school, college or university,
43
134160
4278
законът от 72-ра задължава федералните субсидии за учебни заведения -
02:30
either public or private,
44
138462
2074
и държавни и частни, най-сетне да
02:32
had to -- finally --
give equal monies to boys and girls.
give equal monies to boys and girls.
45
140560
4902
бъдат разпределяни равномерно за момичета и момчета.
02:37
And that changed everything.
46
145909
1491
Това промени всичко.
02:39
(Applause)
47
147424
2826
(Ръкопляскания)
02:42
So you can have a law,
48
150274
1758
Вече имахме закон, сега трябваше
02:44
but it's changing the hearts and minds
to match up with it.
to match up with it.
49
152056
2915
да го покажем в действие със сърца и с ум.
02:46
That's when it really rocks, totally.
50
154995
2547
Тогава можем да празнуваме, изцяло.
02:49
So that was on my mind.
51
157566
1151
Това ми беше на ума.
02:50
I wanted to start that change
in the hearts and minds.
in the hearts and minds.
52
158741
3589
Промяната настъпва в мисленето и сърцата.
02:54
But two things came out of that match.
53
162354
2792
Две неща произлязоха след мача:
02:57
For women: self-confidence, empowerment.
54
165170
3156
жените добиха самочувствие и увереност.
03:00
They actually had enough nerve
to ask for a raise.
to ask for a raise.
55
168350
2542
Имаха смелост да поискат повишение.
03:03
Some women have waited
10, 15 years to ask.
10, 15 years to ask.
56
171675
3841
Някои бяха чакали 10, 15 г. за това.
03:07
I said, "More importantly,
did you get it?"
did you get it?"
57
175838
2001
Питах: "По-важно е дали го получихте?"
03:09
(Laughter)
58
177863
1068
(Смях)
03:10
And they did!
59
178955
1174
Получиха го.
03:12
And for the men?
60
180153
1794
А мъжете?
03:13
A lot of the men today don't realize it,
61
181971
2831
Онези от тях, които са
поне в 40-те си год.
поне в 40-те си год.
03:16
but if you're in your 50s, 60s
or whatever, late 40s,
or whatever, late 40s,
62
184826
5405
са първото поколение мъже
03:22
you're the first generation of men
of the Women's Movement --
of the Women's Movement --
63
190255
3576
от ерата на Женската еманципация.
03:25
whether you like it or not!
64
193855
1292
Незвисимо дали им харесва.
03:27
(Laughter)
65
195171
3022
(Смях)
03:30
(Applause)
66
198217
1283
(Ръкопляскания)
03:31
And for the men,
67
199524
1151
Много често хората,
03:32
what happened for the men,
they'd come up to me --
they'd come up to me --
68
200699
2615
които са говорили просълзени с мен,
03:35
and most times, the men are the ones
who have tears in their eyes,
who have tears in their eyes,
69
203338
3101
са били именно мъже.
03:38
it's very interesting.
70
206463
1151
Интересното е, че са ми казвали:
03:39
They go, "Billie, I was very young
when I saw that match,
when I saw that match,
71
207638
4013
"Били, бях на 12г., когато гледах мача.
03:43
and now I have a daughter.
72
211675
1354
Днес имам дъщеря
03:47
And I am so happy I saw that
as a young man."
as a young man."
73
215193
2797
и се радвам, че съм го гледал като млад мъж."
03:50
And one of those young men,
at 12 years old, was President Obama.
at 12 years old, was President Obama.
74
218588
3549
Президентът Обама е един от тези млади мъже на 12 години.
03:54
And he actually told me that
when I met him, he said:
when I met him, he said:
75
222934
2720
Той лично ми каза когато се срещнахме:
03:57
"You don't realize it,
but I saw that match at 12.
but I saw that match at 12.
76
225678
2958
"Бях на 12г. по това време.
04:00
And now I have two daughters,
77
228660
1853
Как днес възпитавам двете си дъщери
04:02
and it has made a difference
in how I raise them."
in how I raise them."
78
230537
2426
е повлияно от този мач."
04:04
So both men and women got a lot
out of it, but different things.
out of it, but different things.
79
232987
4717
И мъжете, и жените спечелиха от този мач по различен начин.
04:10
PM: And now there are generations --
at least one or two --
at least one or two --
80
238276
3155
ПМ: Вече цяло поколение или две
04:13
who have experienced the equality
81
241455
2700
живеят в равноправие благодарение
04:16
that Title IX and other fights
along the way made possible.
along the way made possible.
82
244179
4886
на този и последвалите го борби.
04:21
And for women, there are generations
who have also experienced teamwork.
who have also experienced teamwork.
83
249089
4591
Жените бяха приети в отборите.
04:25
They got to play team sports
in a way they hadn't before.
in a way they hadn't before.
84
253704
4050
Включиха ги в отборните спортове.
където преди не бяха приети
където преди не бяха приети
04:30
So you had a legacy already built
in terms of being an athlete,
in terms of being an athlete,
85
258146
5081
Като спортист ти постигна много в спорта,
04:35
a legacy of the work you did
to lobby for equal pay for women athletes

86
263251
5255
както и чрез лобиране за равноправно
заплащане на жените спортисти.
заплащане на жените спортисти.
04:40
and the Women's Sports Foundation.
87
268530
2274
И Женската Спортна Фондация
04:43
What now are you looking to accomplish
88
271368
2702
Към какво се стремиш в момента
04:46
with The Billie Jean King
Leadership Initiative?
Leadership Initiative?
89
274094
2956
с инициативата на твое име?
04:49
BJK: I think it goes back
to an epiphany I had at 12.
to an epiphany I had at 12.
90
277360
2848
БДК: Това е мечта, която имах като дете на 12 години.
04:52
At 11, I wanted to be the number one
tennis player in the world,
tennis player in the world,
91
280232
3001
На 11г. исках да съм тенесистка № 1 в света.
04:55
and a friend had asked me to play
and I said, "What's that?"
and I said, "What's that?"
92
283257
3311
един приятел ме покани да играя
и аз го попитах: "Какво е това?"
и аз го попитах: "Какво е това?"
04:59
Tennis was not in my family --
basketball was, other sports.
basketball was, other sports.
93
287098
3475
В моето семейство се играеше баскетбол, не тенис.
05:02
Fast forward to 12 years old,
94
290597
1868
На 12г. обаче
05:04
(Laughter)
95
292489
1597
(Смях)
05:06
and I'm finally starting
to play in tournaments
to play in tournaments
96
294110
2214
вече играех по турнири,
05:08
where you get a ranking
at the end of the year.
at the end of the year.
97
296348
2451
а в края на годината постигаш ранкинг.
05:11
So I was daydreaming
at the Los Angeles Tennis Club,
at the Los Angeles Tennis Club,
98
299432
3369
Докато бях в клуба в Лос Анджелис и си мечтаех
05:14
and I started thinking about my sport
and how tiny it was,
and how tiny it was,
99
302825
4764
се чудех колко непопулярен беше моя спорт
05:19
but also that everybody who played
wore white shoes, white clothes,
wore white shoes, white clothes,
100
307613
3649
и как всички се обличат в бяло,
05:23
played with white balls --
everybody who played was white.
everybody who played was white.
101
311286
2894
играят с бели тенис топки, и са белокожи.
05:26
And I said to myself, at 12 years old,
"Where is everyone else?"
"Where is everyone else?"
102
314880
4962
Чудех се: "Къде са всички други?"
05:34
And that just kept sticking in my brain.
103
322222
3151
И това не ми даваше мира.
05:37
And that moment,
104
325397
1151
В този момент си обещах
05:38
I promised myself I'd fight
for equal rights and opportunities
for equal rights and opportunities
105
326572
2954
да се боря за равни права и еднакви
05:41
for boys and girls, men and women,
the rest of my life.
the rest of my life.
106
329550
2748
възможности за деца, мъже и жени до края на живота си.
05:44
And that tennis, if I was fortunate
enough to become number one --
enough to become number one --
107
332779
4212
И че ако стана №1 в тениса,
05:49
and I knew, being a girl,
it would be harder to have influence,
it would be harder to have influence,
108
337015
3491
на тази възраст вече знаех, че за момиче
05:52
already at that age --
109
340530
1977
е по-трудно да оказваш влияние,
05:54
that I had this platform.
110
342531
2046
ще го използвам като платформа.
05:58
And tennis is global.
111
346301
1668
Тенисът е глобален спорт.
06:01
And I thought, "You know what?
112
349451
1741
Казвах си: "Имам шанс, който
06:04
I've been given an opportunity
that very few people have had."
that very few people have had."
113
352163
2928
на много малко хора им се дава."
06:07
I didn't know if I was going
to make it -- this was only 12.
to make it -- this was only 12.
114
355115
2955
Не знаех дали ще успея, бях само на 12г.
06:10
I sure wanted it, but making it
is a whole other discussion.
is a whole other discussion.
115
358094
3128
да искаш е едно, да го постигнеш - друго.
06:13
I just remember I promised myself,
and I really try to keep my word.
and I really try to keep my word.
116
361246
4203
Но помня това обещание към себе си и го спазвам.
06:18
That's who I truly am,
just fighting for people.
just fighting for people.
117
366174
3802
Такава съм - боря се за каузи.
06:22
And, unfortunately, women have had less.
118
370000
4210
А жените не са имали много защитници.
06:27
And we are considered less.
119
375031
2269
И сме били подценявани.
06:29
And so my attentions,
where did they have to go?
where did they have to go?
120
377324
2268
Без нужното внимание.
И към кого да се обърнат?
И към кого да се обърнат?
06:31
It was just ... you have to.
121
379616
2185
Затова трябваше да го направя.
06:33
And learn to stick up for yourself,
hear your own voice.
hear your own voice.
122
381825
3231
И да се науча сама да се боря за себе си,
да се вслушам в гласа си.
да се вслушам в гласа си.
06:37
You hear the same words
keep coming out all the time,
keep coming out all the time,
123
385080
3337
едни и същи думи, които чувах всякога.
06:40
and I got really lucky
because I had an education.
because I had an education.
124
388441
3717
Имах късмет да съм образована. Знаех, че
06:44
And I think if you can see it
you can be it, you know?
you can be it, you know?
125
392182
2568
щом го мислиш, можеш да го постигнеш.
06:46
If you can see it, you can be it.
126
394774
2216
Щом го мислиш, можеш да го постигнеш.
06:49
You look at Pat,
you look at other leaders,
you look at other leaders,
127
397014
2004
Погледни Пат, други лидери, себе си
06:51
you look at these speakers,
look at yourself,
look at yourself,
128
399042
2146
защото всеки един от нас, вижте се
06:53
because everyone --
129
401212
1658
абсолютно всеки
06:54
everyone --
130
402894
1358
всеки може да постигне
06:56
can do something extraordinary.
131
404276
1813
нещо забележително.
06:58
Every single person.
132
406113
1442
Абсолютно всеки.
06:59
PM: And your story, Billie,
has inspired so many women everywhere.
has inspired so many women everywhere.
133
407579
4233
ПМ: Твоята история е вдъхновяваща за много жени, Били.
07:04
Now with the Billie Jean King
Leadership Initiative,
Leadership Initiative,
134
412287
2871
С инициативата на твое име
07:07
you're taking on an even bigger cause.
135
415182
2184
се заемаш дори с по-голяма кауза.
07:09
Because one thing we hear a lot
about is women taking their voice,
about is women taking their voice,
136
417390
4024
Защото често чуваме за жените повдигайки гласовете си
07:13
working to find their way
into leadership positions.
into leadership positions.
137
421438
3427
да извоюват мястото си като лидери.
07:16
But what you're talking
about is even bigger than that.
about is even bigger than that.
138
424889
2832
Но твоята идея е дори по-голяма:
07:19
It's inclusive leadership.
139
427745
2229
равноправно всеобхватно лидерство.
07:21
And this is a generation that has grown up
thinking more inclusively --
thinking more inclusively --
140
429998
3590
Днешното поколение
е по-склонно да приеме това мислене.
е по-склонно да приеме това мислене.
07:25
BJK: Isn't it great?
Look at the technology!
Look at the technology!
141
433612
2121
БДК: Чудесно, нали? Виж технологиите,
07:27
It's amazing how it connects us all!
It's about connection.
It's about connection.
142
435757
4552
които ни свързват навсякъде. Изумително е
07:32
It's simply amazing
what's possible because of it.
what's possible because of it.
143
440333
3614
колко много възможности създават.
07:35
But the Billie Jean King
Leadership Initiative
Leadership Initiative
144
443971
2440
Инициативата на мое име цели
07:38
is really about the workforce mostly,
and trying to change it,
and trying to change it,
145
446435
3064
равноправие на работното място,
и се опитва да го промени,
и се опитва да го промени,
07:41
so people can actually go to work
and be their authentic selves.
and be their authentic selves.
146
449523
4345
за да може всеки да може да работи и да се чувства себе си.
07:45
Because most of us have two jobs:
147
453892
3037
Повечето от нас играят 2 роли:
07:48
One, to fit in -- I'll give you
a perfect example.
a perfect example.
148
456953
2619
едната - за да се впишеш. Например,
07:51
An African American woman
gets up an hour earlier to go to work,
gets up an hour earlier to go to work,
149
459596
3331
една жена от афро-американски произход,
става час по-рано за да отиде на работа,
става час по-рано за да отиде на работа,
07:54
straightens her hair in the bathroom,
150
462951
1801
изправя косата си в банята
07:56
goes to the bathroom
probably four, five, six times a day
probably four, five, six times a day
151
464776
3183
и по 5-6 пъти на ден
ходи до тоалетната
ходи до тоалетната
07:59
to keep straightening her hair,
to keep making sure she fits in.
to keep making sure she fits in.
152
467983
3088
да изправя косата си
за да е сигурна, че се вписва.
за да е сигурна, че се вписва.
08:03
So she's working two jobs.
153
471095
1270
Така тя работи две неща.
08:04
She's got this other job,
whatever that may be,
whatever that may be,
154
472389
2385
Формалната, каквато и да е тя.
08:06
but she's also trying to fit in.
155
474798
2210
И другата - да се впише в нея.
08:09
Or this poor man who kept his diploma --
156
477032
4043
Или беднякът, който има диплома за висше
08:13
he went to University of Michigan,
157
481099
1716
от университета в Мичиган, но никога
08:14
but he never would talk about
his poverty as a youngster, ever --
his poverty as a youngster, ever --
158
482839
3321
не говори за бедността като младеж, през която
08:18
just would not mention it.
159
486184
1319
е минал, не би я споменал.
08:19
So he made sure they saw
he was well-educated.
he was well-educated.
160
487527
2249
Подсигурява си да видят,
че е добре образован.
че е добре образован.
08:22
And then you see a gay guy
who has an NFL --
who has an NFL --
161
490338
2444
А какво да кажем за онзи хомосексуалист,
който е професионален футболист -
който е професионален футболист -
08:24
which means American football
for all of you out there,
for all of you out there,
162
492806
2641
което значи Американски футбол за
повечето от вас тук,
повечето от вас тук,
08:27
it's a big deal, it's very macho --
163
495471
1951
голяма работа и мъжкар,
08:29
and he talked about football all the time,
164
497447
2022
който говори само за футбол, защото
08:31
because he was gay
and he didn't want anybody to know.
and he didn't want anybody to know.
165
499493
3580
е гей и не иска никой да узнае това.
08:35
It just goes on and on.
166
503097
1777
Примери колкото искаш.
08:36
So my wish for everyone is to be able
to be their authentic self 24/7,
to be their authentic self 24/7,
167
504898
6113
А аз искам всеки да може да бъде автентично себе си
24/7.
24/7.
08:43
that would be the ultimate.
168
511035
1806
Това е голямата цел.
08:44
And we catch ourselves -- I mean,
I catch myself to this day.
I catch myself to this day.
169
512865
3526
И понякога се усещаме - имам предвид понякога се хващам,
08:48
Even being gay I catch myself,
you know, like,
you know, like,
170
516415
2147
мен самата, понеже аз съм гей,
08:50
(Gasp)
171
518586
1150
(Поема си въздух)
08:52
a little uncomfortable,
a little surge in my gut,
a little surge in my gut,
172
520464
3088
малко неприятно,
леко свиване в стомаха, понеже
леко свиване в стомаха, понеже
08:55
feeling not totally
comfortable in my own skin.
comfortable in my own skin.
173
523576
3068
не се чувствам комфортно в кожата си.
09:00
So, I think you have to ask yourself --
174
528655
2229
Затова мисля, че трябва да поискаме
09:02
I want people to be themselves,
whatever that is, just let it be.
whatever that is, just let it be.
175
530908
3147
всеки човек да бъде просто себе си.
09:06
PM: And the first research
the Leadership Initiative did showed that,
the Leadership Initiative did showed that,
176
534079
3712
ПМ: Проучването на твоята организация
09:09
that these examples you just used --
177
537815
3236
сочи, че примерите които показа --
09:13
that many of us have the problem
of being authentic.
of being authentic.
178
541075
4805
това е проблем за много от нас -
да бъдем автентични.
да бъдем автентични.
09:17
But what you've just looked at
is this millennial generation,
is this millennial generation,
179
545904
4025
Хората от днешното хилядолетно поколение се радват
09:21
who have benefited from all these
equal opportunities --
equal opportunities --
180
549953
3538
на равни възможности, които поне съществуват,
09:25
which may not be equal
but exist everywhere --
but exist everywhere --
181
553515
2161
дори и да не се прилагат навсякъде.
09:27
BJK: First of all, I'm really lucky.
182
555700
1719
БДК: Първо, аз имах късмет
09:29
Partnership with Teneo,
a strategic company that's amazing.
a strategic company that's amazing.
183
557443
4532
да си партнирам със стратегическа копмания като Тенео, което е удивително.
09:33
That's really the reason
I'm able to do this.
I'm able to do this.
184
561999
2173
Това ми помогна да постигна всичко това.
09:36
I've had two times in my life
185
564517
1461
В два етапа от живота си
09:38
where I've actually had men
really behind me with power.
really behind me with power.
186
566002
2686
съм усещала истински силна подрепа от мъже.
09:40
And that was in the old days
with Philip Morris with Virginia Slims,
with Philip Morris with Virginia Slims,
187
568712
3290
Първо беше Филип Морис с Вирджиния Слимс.
09:44
and this is the second time
in my entire life.
in my entire life.
188
572026
2334
Сега, вторият път,
09:46
And then Deloitte.
189
574384
1349
са Делойт.
09:49
The one thing I wanted was data -- facts.
190
577157
2785
Те ми помогнаха с набирането на данни - факти.
09:52
So Deloitte sent out a survey,
191
580465
1727
Делойт проведе проучване
09:54
and over 4,000 people now have answered,
192
582216
4005
на което повече от 4000 души са отговорили
09:58
and we're continuing in the workplace.
193
586245
1884
и продължават да го правят.
10:00
And what do the millennials feel?
194
588871
2429
Как реагира днешното поколение?
10:04
Well, they feel a lot, but what
they're so fantastic about is --
they're so fantastic about is --
195
592157
3261
Те са фантастични. По наше време
10:07
you know, our generation was like,
"Oh, we're going to get representation."
"Oh, we're going to get representation."
196
595442
3529
беше достатъчно всяка група
да има представителство.
да има представителство.
10:10
So if you walk into a room,
you see everybody represented.
you see everybody represented.
197
598995
2788
Така че като влезеш в стая
всички имат представители
всички имат представители
10:13
That's not good enough anymore,
which is so good!
which is so good!
198
601807
2470
Днес това не стига, което е хубаво!
10:16
So the millennials are fantastic;
they want connection, engagement.
they want connection, engagement.
199
604301
4220
Всеки трябва да се свърже,
да се ангажира, да е въвлечен.
да се ангажира, да е въвлечен.
10:20
They just want you to tell us
what you're feeling, what you're thinking,
what you're feeling, what you're thinking,
200
608545
3424
как се чувства, какво мисли и да допринесе
10:23
and get into the solution.
201
611993
1253
за решение на проблема.
10:25
They're problem-solvers,
202
613270
1238
Те намират решения.
10:26
and of course, you've got
the information at your fingertips,
the information at your fingertips,
203
614532
2875
С помощта на цялата нужна информация
10:29
compared to when I was growing up.
204
617431
2702
за разлика от нашето време.
10:32
PM: What did the research show you
about millennials?
about millennials?
205
620157
2528
ПМ: Какво заключи проучването?
10:34
Are they going to make a difference?
206
622709
1719
Променят ли се нещата?
10:36
Are they going to create a world where
there is really an inclusive work force?
there is really an inclusive work force?
207
624452
4017
Ще съществува ли равноправен свят?
10:40
BJK: Well, in 2025,
75 percent of the global workforce
75 percent of the global workforce
208
628493
5892
БДК: През 2025г. 75% от работещите
10:46
is going to be millennials.
209
634409
1440
ще са родени през 21-ви век.
10:48
I think they are going
to help solve problems.
to help solve problems.
210
636202
2287
Те ще решат много днешни проблеми
10:50
I think they have
the wherewithal to do it.
the wherewithal to do it.
211
638513
2096
Ще имат ресурсите за това.
10:52
I know they care a lot.
212
640633
1571
Достатъчно ги е грижа и ще имат
10:54
They have big ideas
and they can make big things happen.
and they can make big things happen.
213
642228
4476
възможност да осъществят големи идеи.
10:59
I want to stay in the now
with the young people,
with the young people,
214
647049
2318
Искам да съм заедно с младите
11:01
I don't want to get behind.
215
649391
1894
и да не изоставам.
11:04
(Laughter)
216
652673
1671
(Смях)
11:06
PM: I don't think there's any chance!
217
654368
1806
ПМ: Те нямат избор!
11:09
But what you found out
in the research about millennials
in the research about millennials
218
657604
2995
Проучванетo посочи, че
11:12
is not really the experience that a lot
of people have with millennials.
of people have with millennials.
219
660623
4627
голяма част от младите нямат нужния опит.
11:17
BJK: No, well, if we want to talk --
OK, I've been doing my little mini-survey.
OK, I've been doing my little mini-survey.
220
665274
3764
БДК: Проведох собствено малко проучване.
11:21
I've been talking to the Boomers,
who are their bosses, and I go,
who are their bosses, and I go,
221
669062
4883
Попитах родените през 70-те:
11:25
"What do you think about the millennials?"
222
673969
2046
"Какво мислиш за младите?"
11:28
And I'm pretty excited, like it's good,
223
676039
1876
Понеже аз съм доста въодушевена.
11:29
and they get this face --
224
677939
1456
Така ми реагират...
11:31
(Laughter)
225
679419
2316
(Смях)
11:33
"Oh, you mean the 'Me' generation?"
226
681759
1682
"Питаш за "Аз" поколението?"
11:35
(Laughter)
227
683465
1581
(Смях)
11:37
I say, "Do you really think so?
228
685070
1488
Питам: "Наистина ли?
11:38
Because I do think they care
about the environment
about the environment
229
686582
2882
Вярвам, че ги е грижа за природата
11:41
and all these things."
230
689488
1295
и всичко останало."
11:43
And they go, "Oh, Billie,
they cannot focus."
they cannot focus."
231
691442
4485
Отговарят ми: "Били, те не могат
да се фокусират."
да се фокусират."
11:47
(Laughter)
232
695951
2702
(Смях)
11:50
They actually have proven
233
698677
1619
Което се оказа вярно.
11:52
that the average focus
for an 18-year-old is 37 seconds.
for an 18-year-old is 37 seconds.
234
700320
3494
Средно един 18г. младеж
може да се фокусира за 37 сек.
може да се фокусира за 37 сек.
11:55
(Laughter)
235
703838
1569
(Смях)
11:57
They can't focus.
236
705431
1399
Не могат.
11:58
And they don't really care.
237
706854
1409
И всъщност не го е грижа.
12:00
I just heard a story the other night:
238
708287
1841
Онзи ден ми разказаха следното.
12:02
a woman owns a gallery
and she has these workers.
and she has these workers.
239
710152
2430
Собственичка на галерия има 3-ма работника.
12:05
She gets a text from one of the workers,
240
713547
3165
Един от тях и праща съобщение,
12:08
like an intern, she's
just starting -- she goes,
just starting -- she goes,
241
716736
2648
ученик на стаж при нея.
12:11
"Oh, by the way, I'm going to be late
because I'm at the hairdresser's."
because I'm at the hairdresser's."
242
719408
3383
"Между другото ще закъснея,
'щото съм на фризьор."
'щото съм на фризьор."
12:14
(Laughter)
243
722815
4912
(Смях)
12:19
So she arrives, and this boss says,
244
727751
3812
Когато се появява, жената пита:
12:23
"What's going on?"
245
731587
1151
"Какво стана?"
12:24
And she says, "Oh, I was late,
sorry, how's it going?"
sorry, how's it going?"
246
732762
2526
"Закъснях малко, сори, как е, к'во става?"
12:27
She says, "Well, guess what?
I'd like you leave, you're finished."
I'd like you leave, you're finished."
247
735312
4100
"Ами познай, бих желала да напуснеш."
12:31
She goes, "OK."
248
739436
1366
А тя: "Ами добре."
12:32
(Laughter)
249
740826
3202
(Смях)
12:36
No problem!
250
744052
1151
Няма проблем!
12:37
PM: Now Billie, that story --
251

12:45
No, it is good for us to share,
255
753611
1483
Не, наистина, добре е да споделяме,
12:47
because we're our authentic selves

so we've got to take it
both ways, you know?

257
758211
2273
трябва да приемeм и двете страни, нали?
12:52
But I have great faith because --
258
760508

Но истински вярвам,
12:54
if you've been in sports like I have --
259

от опита си на спортист, че всяко
12:57
every generation gets better.

264
774672

понеже не е утвърдена позицията още,
13:09
so we really are concerned,
265
