It isn’t often we have guests come back for a second visit but today’s guest is a special one! Tamsen Webster is here for her second conversation on The Speaker Lab.
If you missed her first appearance on the show check out episode 118 where we talk all about Ted and TEDx Talks. And if you didn’t hear that show you probably don’t know that Tamsen is the Executive Director of TEDx Cambridge, and is also the CEO and Founder of her company, Strategic Speaking.
On this edition of The Speaker Lab, we’re diving deep into how to find your “big idea” for your talks. Tamsen calls herself part idea whisperer, part message strategist, and part magpie. You’ll hear why when you tune in to this episode of The Speaker Lab!
