Theme: Why We Work
Tempe, AZ, United States
September 8th, 2011
About this event
This year we focus on Why We Work. What is work? It could be what ignites your passion, how you make money or what makes your sweat. To some, work is a title, a timeframe, or simply, just a word. TEDxTempe 2011 will provide the landscape for an illuminating conversation of what work means for us and why we do or do not do it.
