RETHINK -The need of the hour : TEDxHyderabad 2018

 5 years ago    

How to get a new perspective on an old idea?

Nothing complicated, just Rethink!

A child’s curiosity and thirst for new knowledge often gets lost in the transition to adulthood. This is especially true of adults who have been in the same career for a long time. Stability can turn into sameness, and the reliability can become predictable. You may get the occasional curveball thrown your way, like some new calendar application or accounting software, but that’s about it.

Success today requires the agility and drive to rethink, reinvigorate, react and reinvent constantly.  We need to rethink the fundamental premises of schooling and decide what it is we want all children to learn and why. We need to rethink our position in the world and as an individual, what we should do to make this world a better place. It’s time to reset, rethink and reposition.

Rethinking gives you permission to use your thoughts to change your mind. Take what is and spin it around to give you a new review and fresh perspective” – Susan C Young

As a tribute to all those rethinkers, this year, the TEDx team chose the theme RETHINK. An Invite from their end is what we are extending to our Hyderabad startup community in their own words:

“Are you a contributor to a creative future or a survivor of history?

Do you have an unmet goal? NOW is the time to RETHINK your vision!

Have you lost an opportunity? NOW is the time to RETHINK your choices!

Be it any field of work, how far are you willing to go and RETHINK?

Contribute to the future as we celebrate and salute exceptional RETHINK’ers

The need of the Hour? A powerful opportunity yet a challenge? Why Change? What drives you to be the change.#RETHINK”

A wide range of speakers of unique backgrounds are already filling up the chart, and we promise you that this year it’s going to be big and better than ever before. So far we have,
  • Meghana, an international award-winning Rhythmic Gymnast from India. Meghana was the only participant from India for Rhythmic gymnastics in the XXI Commonwealth Games 2018. She is highly dedicated and trains herself for nearly 6 to 8 hours daily, following her rhythmic passion.
  • Harish Sadani, who runs an organization called Men Against Violence and Abuse (MAVA).His unique thought of bringing social equality of gender paved roots to many miraculous changes in the realm of feminism.
  • Sanjay Tumma,  better known as Vahchef, the famous youtube star with millions of views. He is also best chef honored with many international and national awards.

  • Sandeep Sangaru,  who is a multidisciplinary designer and entrepreneur.

  • Colleen Lightbody,  She is known as “The Brain Guru” through her writing for blogs and magazines, as well as in television and radio interviews. Her area of expertise lies in Neuroscience, Mindfulness, Brain-based Learning, Personal and Professional Leadership, and Emotional Intelligence.

  • Anshul Sinha, He has participated in more than 500 film festivals so far, winning more than 100 national and international awards, and continues to make an impact with his movies.
