Has anyone ever given a #TED talk that could mentor me? I'd like to know how to submit a presentation that actually interests them, how to do the presentation, and what comes after.

@ozoned I know a few people who have done TEDx talks… and one who did a TEDTalk… but we lost contact. From discussions we had, if I remember correctly, once a speaker gets the green light, the TED organization trains them (for months even!) about how to do a presentation.

In terms of topics that interest them, the people I knew who got selected had of course merit but also somewhat knew organizers or had someone in their network helping them - it may be about who you know

@ozoned
The only TED talk person I know (virtually) is @shanselman. I heard he's a great mentor. 😄

@badnetmask @ozoned when you're invited to do a TEDx talk or TED talk they assign you a professional speaker coach. That's what they did for me. She wrote the book on TED talks https://catheyarmillas.com/ and my talk is at https://www.hanselman.com/
