Chief Evangelist at Canva, Former Brand Ambassador for Mercedes-Benz, Former Chief Evangelist at Apple Guy Kawasaki Chief Evangelist at Canva, Former Brand Ambassador for Mercedes-Benz, Former Chief Evangelist at Apple Guy Kawasaki is an innovation keynote speaker, social media expert, chief evangelist of Canva, and the bestselling author of The Art of the Start . His engaging talks are packed with insights drawn from his experience in the tech industry, showing audiences how to create innovative products and services using practical techniques. Some of Guy’s clients include Fortune 1000 companies and strategic clients like S&P Global. Born in Honolulu, Hawaii in 1954, Guy grew up in the tough Kalihi Valley neighborhood. His parents, although not wealthy, made numerous sacrifices to provide for their family. His mother was a housewife, and his father worked as a fireman, real estate broker, state senator, and government official, having a long and distinguished career. Guy attended Iolani School, where he received a formative education and credits Harold Keables, his AP English teacher, for sparking his passion for writing. Guy’s career as an author, with thirteen books to his name, would have delighted his teacher, who emphasized the importance of editing. After graduating from Iolani in 1972, Guy went on to Stanford, where he graduated in 1976 with a major in psychology. He initially pursued law at U.C. Davis at his parents’ insistence but left after just a week. The following year, he enrolled in the MBA program at UCLA, which he found more aligned with his interests. His first real job was with Nova Stylings, a fine-jewelry manufacturer, where he learned the vital skill of sales. Guy’s big break came when he joined Apple, thanks to his Stanford roommate Mike Boich. At Apple, he evangelized the Macintosh and played a key role in its success. During this time, Guy met his wife, and he credits Apple as a pivotal point in his life. After leaving Apple in 1987, Guy started a Macintosh database company called ACIUS, which produced the product 4th Dimension . He later transitioned to writing, speaking, and consulting, contributing to MacUser, Macworld, and Forbes. In 1989, Guy co-founded Fog City Software, which created an email product called Emailer and a list server product called LetterRip . By 1995, Guy returned to Apple as an Apple Fellow, during a time when many pundits believed the company was on the brink of collapse. His mission was to maintain and rejuvenate the Macintosh cult. In 1997, he left Apple to start Garage.com , a service connecting angel investors with entrepreneurs. Today, Garage Technology Ventures is a venture capital firm that invests in early-stage tech companies. Guy continued his entrepreneurial ventures, co-founding Alltop, a website that aggregates RSS feeds and organizes them by topic. He also served as a special advisor to the CEO of Google’s Motorola division in 2013. In 2014, he resurrected the role of "chief evangelist" and joined Canva, an online graphic-design service. At Canva, Guy’s goal is to democratize design, making it accessible for everyone to create graphics for social media, posters, business cards, and more. In 2015, Guy was appointed to the board of trustees for the Wikimedia Foundation to help democratize knowledge. That same year, he was named a brand ambassador for Mercedes-Benz USA. He has also been recognized for his contributions to technology and innovation, including his role in helping to democratize computers, design, and knowledge.

Former Commander, USS Benfold and Author, It's Your Ship Mike Abrashoff Former Commander, USS Benfold and Author, It's Your Ship At the age of 36, the Navy selected Abrashoff to become Commander of USS Benfold – at the time, the most junior commanding officer in the Pacific Fleet. The immediate challenges that faced him on this underperforming naval warship were staggering: exceptionally low morale, high turnover and unacceptably low performance evaluations. Few thought that this ship could improve. In many ways, the USS Benfold was actually an extreme example of the same problems facing many organizations today. The solution was to establish a system of management techniques that Abrashoff calls The Leadership Roadmap. At the core of his leadership approach on Benfold was a process of replacing command and control with commitment and cohesion, and by engaging the hearts, minds, and loyalties of workers – with conviction and humility. “The most important thing that a captain can do is to see the ship through the eyes of the crew.” According to Abrashoff, The Leadership Roadmap is a practice that empowers every individual to share the responsibility of achieving excellence. “It’s your ship,” he was known to say. His former sailors to this day still remind him of it. By every measure, these principles were able to achieve breakthrough results. Personnel turnover decreased to an unprecedented 1 percent. The rate of military promotions tripled, and the crew slashed operating expenses by 25 percent. Regarded as the finest ship in the Pacific Fleet, Benfold won the prestigious Spokane Trophy for having the highest degree of combat readiness. Most important – this transformation took place with the same crew. What had changed was the ship’s culture and Abrashoff’s leadership style. Abrashoff recounted the leadership lessons from the turnaround of USS Benfold in It’s Your Ship, a New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller, with over 800,000 copies sold to date. This extraordinary interest in Abrashoff’s leadership journey and Benfold’s organizational lessons led to two follow-up books – Get Your Ship Together and It’s Our Ship. Those books took readers deeper into ways these principles have been put into action by business leaders in their own organizations. Prior to commanding USS Benfold, Abrashoff served as the Military Assistant to Secretary of Defense William J. Perry. He also helped draft the air defense plan for naval forces in the Persian Gulf in 1990, coinciding with Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait; and served as the Executive Officer of the Cruiser Shiloh, where he deployed to the Persian Gulf in support of United Nations sanctions against Iraq. Mike Abrashoff is the founder of GLS Worldwide, a consulting firm which works with and supports leaders as they address leadership, talent and business challenges within their organization. The firm challenges leaders at all levels to re-imagine their leadership thinking and create new ways to elevate individual, team and organizational performance.

Workplace Expert, Author, Humorist Joel Zeff Workplace Expert, Author, Humorist Joel Zeff creates energy. As a dynamic speaker, improvisational humorist, and author, he brings his audiences to life with interactive performances that encourage participation in hilarious improvisational exercises. These exercises illustrate his central message: organizations and individuals should CELEBRATE everyday successes to boost collaboration, productivity, passion, and innovation. Since 1997, Joel has inspired audiences at companies such as Wells Fargo, Samsung, KPMG, and even the IRS—yes, the IRS. Joel is a masterful public speaker and a nationally renowned motivator, lifelong humorist, and improvisational actor. His career is a pursuit of fun and passion. He first discovered the importance of both in his early jobs delivering newspapers and cleaning up trash at a suburban movie theater. Joel’s professional career began in journalism and public relations. In 1994, he transitioned to corporate communications, helping clients with employee communications, media relations, strategy, and customer marketing. Over time, he realized that his clients—many from high-level technology and telecommunications firms—needed more than just marketing strategies. They were hungry for fun, passion, and fresh perspectives on finding success. At the same time, Joel was pursuing comedy on the weekends. Through friends, he discovered improvisational comedy. One of his clients, a large technology company, knew about his weekend comedy gigs and asked him to perform some improvisational games for a group of high-level executives. He brought a fellow comedian along, and thus began his corporate speaking career. Joel connects with his audiences using humor so powerful that it leaves them laughing until their mascara runs, cheeks hurt, and bellies ache. He invites volunteers from the audience to join him on stage and play improvisation games—something many have never done before. He expects nothing less than their success, challenging them to focus, collaborate as a team, communicate effectively, and take responsibility. His presentation, Make the Right Choice, is a mix of humor, inspiration, and practical business insights. Joel’s goal is not just to make you laugh, but also to make you think. The talk provides significant ideas to help audience members reconnect with their passion and drive for success. As outlined in his book, Make the Right Choice , Joel believes that we all face choices in our careers and lives. Every day offers an opportunity to make the right choice to live a more creative, passionate, and productive life. How do you make the right choice? By choosing to provide opportunity, offer positive support, and most importantly, by choosing to have fun. It’s that simple—and Joel shows us how. Outside of speaking, Joel channels his creativity as an actor, writer, and comedian. He began performing professionally in 1992 and was co-host of The Movie Zone on UPN 21 in Dallas. He has appeared in dozens of commercials for clients such as Dallas Cowboys, Harrah’s Casino, Time Warner Cable, Pizza Hut, McDonald’s, and many others.

TV Host, Gold Medalist, Author, Speaker, Founder Victoria Arlen TV Host, Gold Medalist, Author, Speaker, Founder Victoria Arlen’s life drastically changed in 2006 at the tender age of eleven when she developed two rare conditions known as Transverse Myelitis and Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis. This was an incredibly rare scenario, and Victoria quickly lost the ability to speak, eat, walk, and move. She slipped into a vegetative state, in which doctors had written her off as a lost cause. Victoria spent nearly four years “locked” inside her own body, completely aware of what was going on but unable to move or communicate. Doctors believed there was little hope of survival and recovery was unlikely. Victoria, however was not ready to give up. Instead of writing her obituary, she wrote a bucket list of the things she would achieve when she survived. In 2010, after almost four years she began the nearly impossible fight back to life - learning how to speak, eat and move all over again. Victoria went on to defy the odds and not only recovered but has since become an accomplished Motivational Speaker, Television Host, Philanthropist, Writer and Swimmer. Her swimming resume includes three silvers and one gold medal from the London 2012 Games, as well as multiple World, American, and Pan American Records. In April 2015, Victoria made the transition from professional athlete to sportscaster and joined ESPN at the age of twenty, becoming one of the youngest on-air talents hired by the company. She reports and hosts across all platforms including Sportscenter , First Take , NFL Live , This Just In , X Games , College Football Live , Sportscenter on Snapchat , Sportscenter Global , College Gameday All Access , and Special Olympics to name a few. In the Spring of 2016, Victoria defied yet another odd and after spending a decade in a wheelchair paralyzed from the waist down was able to learn how to take one step after another and eventually not only did she learn how to walk but within a year and a half in the Fall of 2017, she learned to dance as a contestant on Season 25 of Dancing with the Stars placing in the top five. Victoria is also the founder and co- chair of Victoria’s Victory Foundation, a nonprofit that assists those with mobility challenges. Since 2017, VVF has given out over half a million dollars in scholarship funds to those who need it most. Victoria’s book titled Locked In hit stores worldwide in August of 2018 as well as her 30 for 30 titled Locked In , which Victoria narrated and produced. Victoria continues to share her story on various speaking tours throughout the world.

Entrepreneur. Inspirational Speaker on Leadership, Team Building, Resilience, and Building a Winning Mindset. Drew Pearson is a Pro Football Hall of Fame wide receiver, former Dallas Cowboys captain, and one of the most sought-after keynote speakers in the country.

No spotlight—just belief and persistence which carried him all the way to the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
