How to get people to do what you want | Barry Sonnenfeld

In this episode of TED Talks Daily, host Elise Hu introduces director Barry Sonnenfeld, who shares ten unexpected rules for survival and success drawn from his four-decade film career. Sonnenfeld humorously recounts anecdotes and insights, including embracing pessimism, avoiding overt comedy cues in filmmaking, the importance of punctuality, not working one's way up the traditional ladder, allowing others to make decisions that align with one's goals, and quirky advice such as avoiding the edge of group photos and carrying a photo of a perfectly cooked steak. He also shares a story about how he dealt with a bullying producer by building a fort in his office.
