How to leave your comfort zone—using chaos theory | Christos Lazaridis | TEDxGeneva

How do you turn setbacks into growth opportunities? Drawing from chaos theory, we will explore why embracing unpredictability and tiny changes isn’t just scientifically sound, but it’s essential for growth. Christos Lazaridis is a Learning & Knowledge Management Architect at ASML, an ex-CERN physicist and a computer geek for as long as he can remember. His journey from probing the fundamental particles of the universe to designing learning experiences reflects his belief that complex systems (whether in particle physics or our personal development) thrive when embracing uncertainty and iteration.
Today, Christos designs learning experiences and knowledge management solutions that help people develop new skills and navigate complexity. His work sits at the intersection of learning innovation, scientific thinking and human development, where the principles of chaos theory offer valuable insights for cultivating a growth mindset. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
