YPO

Peer learning takes on a different energy when YPO members experience something as thought-provoking as TED together. Beyond the talks, YPO members created space to exchange perspectives, challenge assumptions and explore what the ideas could mean for their leadership, businesses and communities. As YPO member Aaron Rallo describes it, having YPO within the TED community is “supercharged.” YPO@TED returns in 2027 with another opportunity to experience world-changing ideas alongside a community of fellow leaders.

YPO member Brett M. Johnson, owner of USL Championship club Rhode Island FC and English Premier League side Ipswich Town FC, sees football as more than a game. It is a global connector, a catalyst for jobs, investment and stronger communities. For leaders, the lesson is powerful: major moments create attention, but intentional leadership converts that attention into enduring momentum. The World Cup united people across cultures and borders; what happens next depends on leaders who build on that energy with clear vision, humility and long-term thinking.
