In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized (subject to certain rules and regulations).

Al Bhatt

For the past 25 years, Al Bhatt has been engaged in what he calls 'Trojan Horse work’ with corporate executives and graduate school students: using the ability to provide predictable, reliable business results as a container for cultivating clients’ and students’ relationship with spontaneity, mystery, and creation. He also likes to take pictures and drink too much coffee.

Rohit Rao

Rohit Colin Rao is a self-taught filmmaker, musician and software architect. He has been riddled with severe ADHD since childhood and it took him a while to realize why, although he had a deep interest and passion for so many different subjects, it was seemingly impossible for him to remain focused in a classroom environment. By implementing the patterns that he describes in this talk, Rohit has been able to deeply pursue his diverse creative passions. He sees his ADHD as a gift instead of a hindrance. He believes that, with self-managed systems like this in place, anyone can excel using their unique strengths and talents. His film and music projects can be found at rohitcolinrao.com
