Ever wondered how TEDxSydney goes about putting together such engaging and memorable content each year? This is the episode for you!
Fenella Kernebone has what some call a portfolio career; ideas curator, MC, speaker and presentation trainer and is known for her many on-air roles with SBS and ABC… oh, and for leading the curatorial team at TEDxSydney.
We’re honoured to have Fenella on the podcast this episode to talk about the intricacies of curating ideas and how a journalistic approach can be adopted by any of us. We recorded this chat just before the announcement of TEDxSydney going virtual and you’ll learn more about what goes into building this aspirational and inspirational event.
We can’t wait for you to hear what we learned from Fenella AND we can’t wait for November 6th and the next TEDxSydney. There are lots of lessons in this episode from understanding the need to have a story arc behind event content through to the importance of curiosity and continuous learning.
In Keep Calm and Fail, we discover that fear of failure can stop us dead in our tracks. We explore that fear of failure prevents us from even starting. We discuss the importance of reframing the idea of failure on our way to striving for excellence. We also touch on the importance of working with those that align with our values to create environments where a “failure” is a step towards improvement and excellence.
