In this program, we watched and discussed a selected TED talk. TED talks follow a unique format. Speakers at TED events have a maximum of 18 minutes to share their messages, which are delivered in highly polished, succinct speeches. TED talks are delivered by people from all walks of life on a multitude of subjects. A great many of these talks are about the insights gained by ordinary people–insights gained through extraordinary experiences or based on their contemplation of the ordinary events of their lives. Either way, their insights are genuine—not based upon theory or dogma, but through experience.

The title of this Ted talk is “Projecting Your Personal Shadow” by Dr. Steve Mortenson.
Dr. Mortenson takes us from unskillful behavior to skillful behavior in this talk focusing on the Personal Shadow and projecting it onto other people. Steve Mortenson is a professor of Communication at the University of Delaware. His teaching and research focus on skillful communication, emotional management, and effective leadership. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
This group was facilitated by Rev. Jacquelyn Eckert.
