Safe to Try Changemaker Podcast

Your favorite comedian wasn’t born funny.   Their best jokes came after a ton of awful ones.
Every joke starts as an idea.  And it’s risky to try out ideas.   You could fail, embarrass yourself, and lose out on time and money.
But the bigger risk may be that your idea could help someone, but without trying, it never will.
In this episode, learn how to reduce some of the risk and find places where it’s Safe to Try.

Toby Arsalan is an up-and-coming comedian in Berlin.   He’s tried out a lot of ideas and has great advice – good ideas don’t matter, it’s executions that do.  Oh, and he’s funny!
Zack Bazzi is a co-founder of TentED, helping to advance the education of children displaced by war.  Zack is a veteran of the US Army and Army National Guard and was deployed to Bosnia, Kosovo, Iraq and Afghanistan.  He works as a consultant in Iraq and while there, he supports organizations that are helping kids to earn an education.
Anne Kjær Riechert is CEO and co-founder of the ReDI School of Digital Integration.  Anne’s goal is to create connections.  She’s doing this by helping refugees learn coding skills and connecting them with companies that need great tech employees.
