It was great being Speaker Mentor for the Awesome TEDX Northern Sydney Institute today. They taught me way more than I could teach them. Well worth it!
Hello Awesome People!
When it comes to having your own ship and running your own business there is a continual demand on many of us to come up with new ideas. Sure, there are common processes, procedures and things that we do – however, when it comes to really performing with style we need continual innovations.
Be it making our products better, providing more intelligent services and coming up with Marketing Ideas – I find what helps the process is having great exchanges with brilliant people. What inspired me to write this article was spending time helping the speakers at TEDx Northern Sydney Institute.
This is part of the TED Talks & Movement all based on the concept of “Ideas Worth Spreading”. I have spent a few days over the last few weeks mentoring speakers and getting them all prepared for sharp and powerful 13 minute-ish type of presentations. This gets presented to a live audience, streamed live and of course lives on YouTube forever in some way!
It was intense, powerful and I worked with awesome people in what is once a stressful moment for them to be happy and ecstatic after they deliver their compelling presentation. As per the TEDx Brand, the chemistry of all the speakers together led to an endless stream of new ideas. Be it helping each other speak better, finding great new angles to make their topics more compelling and even – a bit of heated debate here and there to get us all thinking.
What I really learned from this experience was how it’s really important to break our continual routine, do new things, mix with new people and find great new ways of exposing ourselves to new information to help us progress our business and lives. For me, this stimulation to my brain has given me many new great profitable ideas with anything from tweaking my offering to improving my Online Sales.
My advice and thinking? Great people are worth their weight in gold and like when big companies take all their staff away on retreats – you need to break your “Daily Grind” and do something new and out of the box every now and then. It’s refreshing, inspiring and can give one some great new ideas!
Love your work, thank you to TEDx Northern Sydney Institute and trust you enjoyed the read!
