In this TED Talk, Francesca talks about how we are all born curious yet, as we grow older, our curiosity diminishes.
She reveals how we fear judgment, worry about the impression and how we make on others if we ask questions, or decide that exploring new ideas is a waste of time. In this session, you will learn why curiosity is so important and what you can do to foster it, in yourself and in others.
