I've always been interested in TED talks! This was an excellent resource for preparing and finding opportunities for TEDx talks. I suggest taking notes, pausing to access resources, and taking your time to practice and refine your skills. Highly Recommend!

I’m not a speaker myself, but I handle the marketing for one, and this audiobook was exactly what I needed to help make a solid plan for my client. Once you know it, a lot of things make sense, like the advice for the speaker proposal. The insider tips were especially helpful since it's not like TED will give you a feedback on why you were not selected, so the more prepared you are the better.

Short and sweet, I liked it.

The author did a fantastic job with this audiobook.

I never knew there was a difference between a TED Talk and TEDx, but the defining chapter makes sense.

I had seen a few TED talks before and noticed that those individuals were not only convincing but passionate about what they were communicating, and their ideas helped change my perspective on a few things. The one that most closely resonated with me was Carla Harris, who spoke about the difference between a mentor and a sponsor and making sure you have the right advocates in your corner.

This audiobook took that and more into account. The author presented reviews, provided the back story, gave credit where credit was due, included resources to review, and provided insight into the overall topic of what to do and how to do it when it came to being invited for TEDx. While this wasn't a long book, the author provided enough information for any individual who has an idea they would like to share, create a template for the application, and be accepted as a speaker through the application, also leveraging the fact that there is no harm in asking for help, whether it be a mentor, coach, sponsor, research buddy, etc.

This is an awesome resource when prepping for TED.

Great audiobook for new speakers, or even professional speakers. While this book is primarily aimed at those looking to deliver a TED talk, its principles can be applied to any public speaking in my opinion. I like how the audiobook is structured, it is insightful in a way that guides listeners through the various stages of preparing for speaking at TED. The author emphasizes the importance of storytelling, clarify message, and audience engagement, this encourages speakers to embrace their unique voice and perspective, which is essential.
