A DIY Guide In Building Community | Sophie Zechmeister | TEDxDonauinselSalon

In her TEDxDonauinsel talk, Sophie Zechmeister delves into the significance of communities and why they are essential in our modern world. With a personal perspective and insights into longevity, systemic challenges, and mental health, she provides a practical DIY guide on how to build your own community using the '3 Golden Rs' - Rituals, Rhythms, and Rules. Sophie Zechmeister has devoted her professional life to nurturing communities, a commitment that might seem unusual for a natural individualist. Why does she do it? Because purpose-driven communities not only play a crucial role in personal well-being but also serve as powerful instruments for collaborative action in addressing the systemic challenges our world confronts.

In her previous positions, such as Community Director at Impact Hub Vienna, consultant for the Impact Hub network, and Executive Director at the 1MillionStartups platform, Sophie was instrumental in cultivating communities of social entrepreneurs spanning five continents. Presently, she's dedicated to crafting tools that empower others to establish their own communities. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
