For those who aspire one day to deliver a talk at TED, this tongue-firmly-in-cheek talk from Sebastian Wernicke at TEDActive 2010 reveals all the secrets of a great TED Talk.
Even with the humor, it’s surprisingly revealing. There’s more than a grain of truth there.
As a bonus for everyone, Sebastian has actually produced a little engine to build nonsense TED Talks from the word analysis he did. It’s a bit of fun.
At TEDxCanberra, we’ll be working with our speakers on something a little less silly and a lot more meaty. Hopefully, we’ll end up delivering something all our attendees really value.
Stay tuned for a couple of BIG announcements this week, including, finally, our venue gets revealed.
