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)

He is an amazing speaker. So many military officers do not have this skill.

Such a great general. He said: "I need more I-am-who-I-am troops in Afghanistan." Because of how physically strong the people are there and naturally dominant.
This man is one of my personal heroes

Indeed, I am not all that old (born in the mid 80's!), but I grew up without Wifi etc. and I even *gasp* do leave my phone at home very often (not during the day, but when I go out with friends! I don't want to be called by anybody then! Seriously! Sadly too many people don't understand this anymore ("But what if something happens!" - Hey kid? I don't care, I am having a good time with friends and I don't want to be interrupted and I don't want to constantly check the damn phone either!))
Excelente expositor feliciraciones
On point 👌
A good thoughtful talk by General McCrystal. us "digital immigrants" have perspective about what he says. The "digital natives", not so much.
Very true, excellent talk
Great Talk
Here after War Machine
He will fit right in I'm still laughing about that
If a group of leaders were to socially meet to know one another as suggested, they’re likely to become more dysfunctional. The only value with this lecture is the connection a military leader has is always in need of more intelligence.
Ilusion is connection connection is ilusion
Great general - just was in the wrong wars
So couch commander is a cat... Of course the commander is a cat.
This talk was incoherent
Traitor!!!
