Description
NGOs, NonProfits, and Volunteer Run Organizations do some of the most rewarding work for amazing causes. Unfortunately, they can be under funded, and resources are usually stretched to the breaking point.
Conversely, in more established charities, politics and precedent can discourage the impact of newer leaders and initiatives.
Establishing yourself as a thought leader outside the walls of your charity is one tool that innovators use to leverage the vehicle of TEDx – and raise everyone in their organization by going outside the walls to spread the impact of the ideas behind your charity.
This course will give you options to get either invited – or accepted – to make your ideas heard on the TEDx stage. It features several examples from the 300+ case studies of BeTheTalk podcast, several are from the non-profit world.
You will learn:
WHY TED?
#1 ENEMY to an effective TEDx Talk
How to Anticipate Compassion Fatigue
Make them CURIOUS not indignant
Use TEDx Talks to fundraise & increase resources
And much more!
Many people want to be able to give TEDx talks. The TED logo is a symbol of prestige and credibility in a world that values quality and authority. It will be a mark of a speaker's expertise and clout for their entire careers. It is not easy to get a TED or TEDx talk. Many applicants wonder how they can crack the code because of the rigorous application process and low acceptance rates.
We often think of TED talks as being for great speakers. While the ability to engage an audience is a key qualification, organizers are more concerned with why one speaker is chosen over another.

Nathan Eckel has interviewed over 300 other speakers to discover the secrets of how to Get Accepted.
While many so-called coaches have given great Signature talks, many others have never even given one from the stage.
After volunteering hundreds of hours behind the scenes, as well as sponsoring, emceeing, and speaking at himself, Nathan launched BeTheTalk Podcast to interview a speaker each day for a year - and beyond - as a resource to anyone who wants to give their talk but doesn't know how to start.
His goal is the same: to help YOU understand the backstory of how to position yourself, get your Signature talk accepted - so your personal brand can enjoy the benefits of being on the signature stage.

Research published this year by Harvard and Stanford Business Schools suggests that health problems associated with job-related anxiety account for more deaths each year in the US than Alzheimer’s disease or diabetes. It is likely that the same is true in the UK.
The combination of the Amazon story and the recent study into the impact of work-related stress means that there are important questions that all organisations should ask themselves.
These include: What type of management culture do we foster? What informal conflict management techniques do we offer to foster healthy workplace relationships? What are we doing to enable people at work to enjoy their jobs and thrive, both psychologically and physically?
Scott teaches non-violent communication techniques that help managers live healthier productive lives.
