TED talks have become the gold standard for public speaking. So, how do you craft one? In this talk, originally delivered in a workshop at the Harvard Kennedy School, TEDx talker and coach/consultant Terri Trespicio shares how she has crafted TED talks for herself and others that get booked--and seen. And how to apply the principles of TED to every talk you give.
52. Changes the way people
think about one topic
Your Ted-Worthy Topic…
53. Example #1
Topic: The Selfie
Assumption: Selfies are evidence of narcissism, lost
connection, lack of empathy.
New idea: Selfie is actually evidence of a need to
connect, not a lack of one.
54. Example #2
Topic: Love and relationships
Assumption: True love must last forever to be real.
New idea: Just because your relationship ends doesn’t
mean it wasn’t worth it, and it doesn’t mean you cannot
or will not love again.

The experiment
58. “Your number one task as a speaker is to
transfer into your listener’s mind an
extraordinary gift, a strange and beautiful
object we call...an idea.”
CHRIS ANDERSON, TED CURATOR
101. How do you feel right now?
Excited? Geared up?
Tell me!
102. THE OBVIOUS QUESTION
How do you pick an idea, create a
TED-worthy talk, and deliver in a
way that gets attention and
leads to more speaking?
103. It’s Time.
Make THIS the year you become the speaker
everyone talks about.
How? With a proven approach for doing it…
104. Remember…
Everything I’ve shared with you today has been
used successfully by me and others I’ve trained to
deliver at TEDx and other high-profile events.
I know how this works.
105. Could you do it on your own?
Sure.
But how long will it take you?
Six months? A year?
How will you stay accountable?
How will you know what to do differently?
106. Land your game-changing idea,
create an unforgettable talk,
and pitch it to organizers?
WA N T T O L E A R N H O W T O …
