About TEDx, x = independently organized event

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized. (Subject to certain rules and regulations.)

No matter how many times I hear that story, I always love it... Drew has been the catalyst for more than one lollipop moment for me.

[Nic Mertens]

He gave the same story when I was at TEDxIBYork, later that evening, I made a point of finding him afterwards and we actually talked about life and philosophies for about two and a half hours. Drew is an incredibly fascinating and inspirational man, and I feel very fortunate to have been inspired by him.

Leadership is about influence, and each of us has the ability to influence the people around us...for better or worse.

[Rema Saoub]

It's an amazing words lined up .. thanking people and to get the thank you back is an awesome feeling .. to be able to give and to deserve what you receive . once you believe in all that . It becomes more clear , just who you are , and that's a part of leadership
