  Building Wealth from the Inside Out

  DeDee Cai, Founder and CEO, FIT TO PROFIT

  TOPIC CATEGORY: Financial

  You have the highs and lows in your business. You wondered why running a business seems like charging up an uphill battle most of the time. You know what it takes to be successful, but the results do not correlate with the level of knowledge you possess, nor the level of enthusiasm you have. You may seem successful from the outside, but feel unfulfilled from the inside. So you keep will-powering through until one day you are forced to ask yourself the question: ‘‘What am I doing wrong?’ MORE >

  What if I told you that you don’t have any real business problems, that the issues you have are just a reflection of how you operate as a person, and what you think you are capable of creating. That the state of your net worth is a direct reflection of your level of self-worth. Why does success, and earning money for a business owner has to be such a source of struggle? It does not have to be.

  This presentation will provide you with the tools to set your mind on what’s possible, and reclaim your worth to take your business to the next level.

  Your voice creates: Men should not yell at women

  Gary Gracia, Zilah

  TOPIC CATEGORY: Self-Improvement

  I had to learn the hard way that talking, yelling, screaming and shouting in high volumes does something to women. Women have tolerated a lot because of how people talk to them but as my wife has taught me (she likes to use the word train), women should not accept being spoken to like that. Someone needs to educate men and women to love with women even when someone is rude. MORE >

  Thomas Yeung, Founder, Jurnex

  TOPIC CATEGORY: Financial

  In this talk, I cover the importance of growing your assets safely and responsibly. Everyone knows to save for retirement.

But when it comes to investing, a good offense is a FAR better choice. MORE >

  These days, it's not enough to buy "safe" low-yielding investments or ETFs and hope for the best. That's because, with people living longer and pensions getting cut, you run the risk of outliving your savings.

  We'll cover the broad strokes of what it means to diversify and invest for growth. This talk will be suitable for novice investors and advanced alike, since we'll be covering concepts that anyone can learn.
