I have thoroughly enjoyed attending #TEDxIESEBarcelona event today at #IESE. Patricia Murugami's opening talk "4 steps to unlock your potential" provided the very first thread with which the rest of the event was beautifully interwoven. #Tedxtalks #Barcelona #Weavingthepath pic.twitter.com/u8uqI42Ien

My TED Experience

My TEDx talk from 2013

This is my TEDx talk “Who would you bet on?” I shared this talk at TEDxUniversidaddeNavarra back in 2013.

As of today it has 990,774 views (29 May 2019).

What Makes A Great TED Talk

Here’s June Cohen, Executive Producer at TED Media, sharing her answers to

What makes a great TED Talk?
What are the elements of a great TED Talk? and
What makes a TED.com talk?

She passionately outlines her experience of what types of talks will “go viral”.

The Ingredients of a Great TED talk

In this 14 minute talk, she covers:

the importance of story in a TED talk
being personal without being confessional
how to start a TED talk (the online editors deliberately remove “hello”, “good morning”, and any silly joke at the start, anything that doesn’t grab us at the start)
how to focus (there is time for 1 single idea)
how to be relevant to a wide audience (giving relevant context)
Practice, practice, practice… and more practice (including the sad, sad story of “That was a really good talk, but it wasn’t the best talk that that speaker could give”)
