Embrace Turbulence based on a TEDx Talk

How are you dealing with the turbulence?
Life is naturally full of turbulence. What if we embrace it, as both a metaphor & mindset?

Last December, I delivered my 2nd TED Talk on the topic of “Turbulence.” Based on my experiences as an engineer, artist, and business consultant, I provided what I thought was a different perspective.

Only six month months later, our world is truly upside down with turbulence.

On June 24, The Women’s Committee of the Mid-America Club is hosting a session to view my Talk, with a discussion on the application, and Q&A. I hope you can join us.

In this SAC Learning Accelerator Lab, Linda Popky will take us step by step from idea to writing a strategic press release, blog post or an op-ed that will get read by our target markets.

You’ll leave with a finished piece, guidelines for creating additional pieces, and a plan for what to do next to get your work published.
