Imre Bedő is deeply convinced that his work is a service, and if someone is given the ability to see ahead and understand deeper connections, then he must not only follow the surface, current market trends, but must bravely undertake to put uncomfortable, hidden reasons on the table too. He believes that the solution is to be able to start a new trend with the involvement of people and dare to lead them, to go ahead towards a better world. As a young man, he traveled around the world, and although being a Christian, he took a sip of Confucianist, Buddhist, Hindu, and Islamic cultures. When everyone else was heading inwards, at the age of 23 he quit politics. After graduating college he settled down at a Hungarian bank, from where he was seduced by another sector, so at 26 he became the leader of a large industrial enterprise as the youngest manager of the country. At the age of 40, he decided to dedicate his knowledge, network, energy and his entire self to a social cause. Ignoring the spirit of the times and the warnings about opposite trends, he was committed enough to create the Men's Club movement, that draws attention to the modern marginalization of men regarding their families, their education and community building, to their crucial role played in holding together their families, and in the success of the next generation. Three of his published books are multiple bestsellers. fé This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
