Красиво жить можно или как превратить панельный дом во дворец | Михаил Швыганов | TEDxNovosibirsk


Как вы думаете, можно ли обычную панельную 10-ти этажку превратить в «Дом образцового содержания», в котором стены подъездов в итальянской плитке, керамогранитные полы, перила из нержавейки, бесшумные болгарские лифты, светодиодные светильники с оптико-акустическими датчиками, торцы дома утеплены и отделаны особо стойкой декоративной цветной штукатуркой, у подъездов пандусы, тротуары из брусчатки и многое другое?! Звучит как описание места, где живут олигархи, не правда ли?

А между тем, представьте себе, живут там обычные горожане, не потратившие ни одной лишней копейки сверх положенных платежей за обслуживание жилья!

И все это — благодаря нашему спикеру.

Devenez un meilleur orateur : imitez les autres ! | Pascal Haumont | TEDxInstitutMinesTélécom


Pascal Haumont a plusieurs vies. La première cest la passion du spectacle et de lémotion partagée avec le public. Elle l’a amené à jouer des pièces classiques et contemporaines, à pratiquer l’improvisation théâtrale tout au long de sa vie, et à s’exercer au one man show en tant qu’imitateur à Paris avec des incursions passionnantes en stand up à New-York. La deuxième s’est construite sur 4 années d’études et 12 années d’expérience. Il a ainsi participé à la mise en place de systèmes web complexes chez General Electric et travaillé aux Innovation Labs de Double Click chez Google à New-York. Ces 2 mondes ont trouvé toute leur cohérence dans sa 3e vie: celle de consultant-formateur en communication, auteur et conférencier sur la prise de parole en public. Son véritable secret de préparation d’une bonne prestation oratoire? Imiter les meilleurs orateurs pour simprégner du personnage et devenir plus impactant dans sa communication orale.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized. (Subject to certain rules and regulations.)
