Back in April, I took part in an awesome event called TEDxBU. It was an independently-organized event inspired by the movement of TED.

Here’s my talk on the future of careers:

In short, I see our work shifting toward

- more time spent managing technology

- flexible work environments and

- the continued rise of small businesses.

If you ever get a chance to attend a TEDx event, definitely go. This one was eye-opening, inspiring and a great way to refresh my mind. I learned a lot and will definitely be looking to attend more events like it in the future. Check out more TEDx Talks at their YouTube channel.

Bare with me for a second while I divert back to my communication roots.

What does public speaking have to do with social media marketing? Lots! Some marketers have made whole careers off of giving speeches about how this crazy new online world works.

My old speech coaches from high school are starting a speech consulting firm. Check out their blog for some awesome public speaking tips.
