Three of Bill Gates' Favorite TED Talks are by Lavin Keynote Speakers [VIDEO]

Looking for a few great TED Talks to check out? Why not refer to Bill Gates' top picks—which includes Susan Cain's must-see talk on introverts! The Microsoft mogul recent compiled a list of his 13 favorite talks, with three Lavin keynote speakers rounding out the coveted collection. Cain's record-breaking talk on introversion, and the undervalued talents they posess, recently passed 3 million views—pretty impressive considering Cain had no formal speaking experience before she translated themes from her bestselling book Quiet to the stage! The power of introverts, indeed!

Salman Khan and Steven Pinker also made the cut. Khan's talk chronicles the history of his revoltionary Khan Academy and explains how to better harness new technology to teach our children more effectively. Pinker's talk takes us on a journey from Biblical times to the present—explaining that, contraray to popular belief, we are actually living in the most peaceful times in human history. All three speakers provide unique insights on our society, and give audiences a better grasp on the policies, practices, and characterisitcs, that tell the history of the human condition, and how people are changing over time.
