TED TALK VIDEO SCREENING AND OPEN DISCUSSION
The Lightning Jar’s Professional Events Series
Monthly events designed to promote leadership, learning, professional development, networking and building social and professional connections.
These events are a mix of social networking, learning and discussion, and will be held on the second Thursday of every month at The Lightning Jar.
This month's theme is Personal Growth, and we will screen two previously recorded TED talks on the topic, followed by open discussion and networking.
Social mixer starts at 6:00pm, the TED video screening begins at 6:30pm, followed by open discussion.
The Lightning Jar at VSECU, 194 North Street, Bennington.
Pizza, beer and wine will be provided.
This month’s TED features:
Emilie Wapnick: Why Some of Us Don’t Have One True Calling
What do you want to be when you grow up? Well, if you're not sure you want to do just one thing for the rest of your life, you're not alone. In this illuminating talk, writer and artist Emilie Wapnick describes the kind of people she calls "multipotentialites" — who have a range of interests and jobs over one lifetime. Are you one?
Amy Purdy: Living Beyond Limits
When she was 19, Amy Purdy lost both her legs below the knee. And now ... she's a pro snowboarder (and a killer competitor on "Dancing with the Stars"!). In this powerful talk, she shows us how to draw inspiration from life's obstacles.
Registration and Information
Please register so we have enough pizza (and frosty beverages !)
For more information, contact us at membership@lightningjarvt.com, or call us at 802-321-3070.
