Share your story before you die | Arnaud Collery | TEDxMaastricht

If you’re looking for clear and honest one-liner statements that will make you feel stronger about your purpose in life and the decisions to be made, Arnaud Collery is your man. Following his personal mission to make the world a happier, funnier place, Arnaud is active in two main fields: making companies, organizations and governments happier by stimulating their employees’ sense of purpose and creativity through teambuilding and public speaking workshops; and organizing and curating Stand Up for Passion events dedicated to sharing and spreading passionate and inspirational stories in cities across the world, because “everyone is inspirational, and everyone needs some inspiration.” Arnaud defines himself by risk-taking, his advice to us all and especially for the young generation is: “Work hard on your talent and your desire. Don’t give up. Don’t rush into things but make sure to reach your goals, your dream, one step at a time. We are born to be, to experience, to feel.



Having spent most of the past 20 years working and performing around the world, especially in the US and Asia, the French multitalented innovator, storytelling coach, stand-up comedian, screenwriter and filmmaker says he is “extremely happy” to go back to Europe as a speaker at TEDxMaastricht on 17 October: “Europe is a big deal for me. I am very grateful. People have said it’s one of the best TEDx events around so I hope I can bring my best game and make you proud.”
