The power of alternative sports for underserved youth | Montana Butsch | TEDxIEMadrid

The ‘New Normal’, as it stands, is a heightened level of inter connection within groups (social, peer, traits, and other) and how those groups currently interface with one another and the world at large. My work focused on how underserved youth – those most affected by the new normal – stand to benefit the most from this type of information collection, however, the message they often receive, or pay attention to, are ones of dubious quality and/or vapid. Much of the problem stems from a value system that is ingrained to be off target at a young age – but no person right of mind would ever voluntarily choose such a state. Something else is amiss and I would like to explore this duality under the context of lessons learned from the founding of my own organization, the backdrop by which it was started, and the questions it raises given its learnings. Montana Butsch is the Founder of the Chicago Training Center (CTC), an afterschool program that introduces minority teens in alternative sports to maximize their personal and academic potential. He is an Executive Scholar with Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management, focusing on nonprofit leadership, and is an Executive MBA graduate of IE Brown. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
