The Magic of Talking in Circles | Scott Miller | TEDxABQ

NOTE FROM TED: TEDx events are independently organized by volunteers. The guidelines we give TEDx organizers are described in more detail here: storage.ted.com...
We each have a circle of connections that either help us to succeed with our goals or hold us back. If we want to achieve a significant goal in our life, like moving out of poverty and into prosperity, we need to find a new circle to support us. What happens when we really get to know people who earn more money than us, and they agree to be our ally in reaching our goals? Circles is a twenty-five-year program that has helped thousands of people build new connections and change their lives. Scott C. Miller is the founder of Circles USA and a private consultant working with select communities in designing and implementing new poverty alleviation systems that are accountable to reducing poverty rates. Scott is the author of several books, and his work has been featured on numerous national media including CBS Evening News, CNN, NPR, PBS, Huffington Post, Philanthropy Roundtable Chronicles, and Stanford Social Innovation Review. He has been named by AARP as a Well-Being Champion. He has over thirty-five years of experience in designing and implementing innovative programs that support people out of poverty and into prosperity. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

Sounds way better than donating to a charity that never accomplishes anything
