About us
Entrepreneurship permeates the culture of Silicon Valley - the innovation capital of the world.
The advent of the Digital Age has democratized innovation and entrepreneurship.
Never before has it been more possible for anyone from anywhere, with a great idea and a burning desire to succeed, to make it big, and in the process, change the world in a relatively short period of time.
HP, Intel, Apple, Microsoft, Cisco, Oracle, Yahoo, eBay, Amazon, Google, Facebook and many, many, many other iconic companies all started with just an idea. Taking a startup from idea to IPO has taken on mythical proportions in Silicon Valley and beyond. Many dream the dream, with hopes of launching the "next big thing".
We are a community of entrepreneurs, technologists, engineers, venture capitalists, angel investors, educators, financial professionals, corporate executives, attorneys, academics, bloggers, writers, content creators, and social activists.

How you present yourself matters.“Hey dude! How’s it goin’?”
Data indicates that 92% of hiring managers believe human capabilities and soft skills matter as much or more than hard skills.
Strikingly, 89% of talent recruiters report that when a new hire fails to work out, it is due to a lack of social skills rather than a lack of technical ability.
This introductory class will show you how to avoid costly soft skills mistakes.
In this webinar, you will learn:
- The "energy" to avoid, and what to bring instead.
- This One “Thing” Makes People (especially women), Uneasy, (use it positively)
- The Cause of Social Anxiety, and How To “Cure” It
- Trigger Trust With These Body Language “Hacks”
- How to Naturally Keep The Conversation Going
- A Simple, Time-Tested Requirement For Leadership
- And much more!
In this webinar, master hypnotist John Farley will show you what it takes to build trust and lead. John has taken a room full of strangers and, within hours, had them walking barefoot on hot coals or broken shards of glass, or letting loose on stage. Using basic skills, you will feel more comfortable interacting with others and gaining their trust.

Most job seekers don’t need more motivation.
They need a clear strategy and a daily operating system.
When interviews aren’t coming, the first instinct is usually to rewrite the resume, update LinkedIn, or submit more applications.
But those are not always the real problem.
You don’t need to change your resume first.
You need to understand what is blocking traction.
You don’t need to keep editing your LinkedIn profile.
You need to know whether your positioning, targeting, or outreach is failing.
You don’t need to submit more applications.
You need a better strategy.
In this live session, Nader Mowlaee, founder of Engineer Your Mission, will walk you through a simple self-discovery audit that helps you identify what is actually stopping you from getting interviews.
Then you’ll turn that audit into a 7-day sprint plan you can execute immediately.
This is not a live resume review or generic Q&A session.
It is a repeatable process you can use every week to diagnose your job-search problems, fix what matters, and make daily progress.## What You’ll Learn
Move 1: Diagnose the Real Problem
Identify what is blocking interviews right now
Separate resume problems from targeting, outreach, and positioning problems
Answer the top 10 questions every job seeker must clarify before entering the market
Move 2: Choose the Right Hiring Path
Understand the 3 hiring paths that actually convert
Learn how to pick the fastest path based on your current situation
Stop wasting time on activities that look productive but do not create conversations
Move 3: Build Your 7-Day Operating System
Create a daily job search plan you can run in 30, 60, or 90 minutes
Use a scorecard to track what is working and what needs to change
Learn how to fix your strategy when replies are not coming
No fluff. No motivation talk. No guessing.
Just a clear job search system you can use to make better decisions and take focused action every day.
Reserve your spot and bring your current job search situation if you want to follow the process live.## Who This Is For
This webinar is built for:
Engineers, technologists, scientists, product managers
Job seekers who like structure, systems, and clear steps
People who are applying or networking but not getting enough replies## Who This Is Not For
