Adam’s talk walks us through a journey that starts with a common desire to succeed and ends with the realization that the word success is in desperate need of a new definition, the role of passion is not what most people think it is and there is a direct link between humanity and happiness. Adam’s life has been an ongoing search for what whatever lies at the summit. He started with nothing and founded a company that completed an $50M IPO, created a reconciliation event featuring Nelson Mandela that attracted tributes from Morgan Freeman, Samuel Jackson and Henry Kissinger among others, created a health center for a village in West Africa and eventually found himself confronted with the questions – what was the point of it all and will I ever reach the summit? This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
