I have already made reservations for a large group at a #Denver theater and will be hosting a salon afterwards so we can debrief highlights and swap notes about our epiphanies.
Why not do the same in your own city for friends and co-workers?
Think about it. We can go to a concert, play, movie or book-reading from one of our favorite artists. And that's nice.
However, this is an opportunity to experience curated BEST OF THE BEST leading edge thinkers from around the world sharing their most exciting "ideas worth spreading."
What makes this even better is you get to share this experience with others and swap notes afterwards. Maybe it's just me ... but that kind of sounds like bliss.
Some of you know I used to host salons at the National Press Club in Washington DC. I created a facilitated approach where everyone in the room felt included and had an opportunity to connect and contribute so it truly was a fun, meaningful "rising tide raising all participants" event.
If you decide to host your own TED cinema party/ discussion in your own town, and you want our guidelines on how to ensure your gathering is truly an interactive event where everyone adds and receives value, email us at [email protected] and we'll be glad to send them to you.
What a wonderful opportunity to focus on what's RIGHT in the world and immerse ourselves in the collective genius of proactive people who are dedicating themselves to making the world a better place. Thank you TED.
I know where I'll be April 30. How about you?
