When Chris Bailey completed his Bachelor of Business Administration last May, he received two excellent job offers, but declined them both and opted to start a project called "A Year of Productivity." For his project, Chris read lots of books on productivity, he conducted many interviews with the most productive people in the world, he himself became the subject of his experiences in productivity, such as meditating for 35 hours during a week, living in complete isolation from the world for 10 days, and watched more than 70 hours of TED conferences in one week. The results of his experiments were seen and read by hundreds of thousands of people from around the world. Chris talks about what he has learned throughout his project.

Quand Chris Bailey a terminé son baccalauréat en gestion des affaires en mai dernier, on lui a fait deux excellentes offres d'emploi, mais il a plutôt opté de démarrer un projet intitulé « A Year of Productivity ». Pour réaliser son projet, Chris lit le plus de livres possible sur la productivité, il fait des interviews avec les personnes les plus productives au monde, et il se fait le sujet de ses expériences de productivité, comme par exemple, méditer pendant 35 heures au cours d'une semaine, s'isoler complètement du monde pendant 10 jours, et regarder 70 heures de conférences TED en une semaine. Les compte rendus de Chris ont été vus par des centaines de milliers de personnes de partout sur la planète, et on a pu lire sur le blogue TED officiel qu'il est « peut-être l'homme le plus productif que l'on peut souhaiter rencontrer ». Chris va parler de ce qu'il a appris tout au long du projet.

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)
