On April 17 I had the pleasure of attending TEDx Memphis - Simple By Design. Six provocative speakers shared their insights and expertise in various genres related to simplicity in 18 minutes or less. Four TED videos related to the theme Simple By Design were also shown. Two of the presenters were:

Chris Crouch, creator of The GO System (the workplace productivity training program offered by Get Organized by George, Inc.), who shared his view of The Ultimate and Universal Social Network. Chris, a very entertaining presenter, shared a simple way to build a solid network of friends and associates to help advance your business and yourself. 

Steve Levinson, Ph.D., co-author of Following Through presentedWhy the Human Mind Should be Recalled: Exploring the Great Disconnect Between Intention and Action. Steve's presentation was especially exciting for me because I'm designing a course based on his amazing book, Following Through. Although I have had several phone conversations and many email exchanges with Steve, it was the first time I met Steve in person. So even though it was an eight-hour drive down to Memphis, it was well worth the trip!

If you have a chance to attend a TEDx event in your area, I highly recommend you do so.
