TEDxPerth Salon: Can We Talk? – The Art of Conversation
Event description
TEDxPerth presents Can We Talk? The Art of Conversation, a Winter Salon event that brings together five diverse speakers to explore one of the most urgent challenges of our time: how we talk to one another. In an era defined by polarisation, disconnection, and rapid change, this event will delve into the shifting dynamics of conversation—how we speak, listen, influence, disagree, and ultimately connect.
Topics will span from mental wellness and hard conversations to the role of culture, truth, and trust in shaping how we engage. Together, the speakers will offer fresh insights into the art of meaningful dialogue and what it takes to hold space across difference.
This Salon event explores themes of courage, uncertainty, and accountability—asking not only how we talk, but why it matters now more than ever. From Indigenous perspectives on communication to the role of influence in a digital age, from climate grief to disinformation,
Can We Talk? The Art of Conversation invites us to consider what it means to be radically human in a complex world, offering our audience tools for connection, reflection, and action—designed to spark change both personally and collectively.
