Below are the appreciation testimonials from Jason and Kelly, highlighting the valuable insights and takeaways they gained from their participation in this transformative conference.

 

“My major takeaway was the emphasis on adaptable leadership, particularly the significance of building trust, fostering passion, and balancing intrinsic and extrinsic values in the workplace. The insights shared by industry professionals, especially regarding AI’s role in business development and networking opportunities, were invaluable. Collaborating with a diverse team on a leadership project and networking with global BGS members broadened my international exposure, offering fresh perspectives applicable to my future endeavors in Hong Kong.”

“The 2024 BGS Regional Leadership Conference provided a wealth of insights on leadership through renowned speakers like Anne Bonney on Effective Communication, Dayle Smith on Reflective Leadership, and Jim Wagner on Embracing Challenges. Networking sessions facilitated connections with individuals worldwide, fostering personal growth and resilience. A standout moment was participating in creating a digital children’s book during the BGS Gives Back session, reinforcing the importance of giving back and nurturing future leaders. Attending the conference inspired me to pay it forward and make positive societal impacts in the future.”
