From Big Idea to Stage Ready in Eight Sessions
The Program
A powerful TED Talk can launch careers, supercharge book sales and lead to highly paid speaking engagements. But first, you have to write it.
This exclusive, invitation-only program is designed for individuals who are serious about getting on the TEDx stage. Invitees have demonstrated that their idea meets TED-caliber standards and they have the ability to enrich the group with their thoughtful contributions and perspective.
Sessions will be a mix of collaborative work, engaging lectures and, yes, homework in between. As a participant, you’ll work hard, have fun and support your peers. You’ll leave this program ready to deliver the talk of a lifetime. Plus, you’ll understand everything from creating a get-noticed application to nailing your audition.
After this program, you’ll have access to one-on-one speaker sessions at a reduced rate as well as membership in an elite club of past, current and future TEDx speakers.

If you’d like to explore working together on your own TED Talk, TED-style talk or keynote, the first step is to connect with Anna for a short call. We’ll talk about where you are in the process — e.g., just kicking around “big ideas” vs. looking to polish a rough draft? Then we’ll figure out the process, program and pricing that works for you.
