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. Our mission is to provide entrepreneurs with the knowledge, guidance, tools, and connections they need to succeed. Our goal is to build a strong, vibrant, collaborative entrepreneurial community with deep, lasting business and social relationships from Silicon Valley to Tunis and beyond.

Build an AI agent that job hunts while you sleep.
In this hands‑on session, you’ll use Claude to build a job hunt agent that actually saves you time instead of creating more busywork. You’ll learn how to set up focused channels for targeting roles, researching companies, and tailoring outreach, then wire in various APIs so your agent can pull fresh job postings and context on demand. We'll learn how to have a reusable channel setup and prompt patterns you can run weekly to keep your search organized, personalized, and mostly on autopilot.Build an AI agent that job hunts while you sleep.
AI agents are an emerging way to automate parts of your job search, from sourcing roles to drafting outreach, so you spend less time grinding and more time in real conversations.
In this beta, hands‑on workshop, you’ll follow a guided build to assemble a prototype “Job Search Copilot” using Claude. Rather than promising a polished, one‑click agent, we’ll focus on helping you understand the building blocks: structuring prompts and tasks, wiring simple workflows, and tailoring behaviors for your role or niche.
Because tools and setups vary, not every participant will leave with a perfectly running agent in their own environment. Instead, you’ll leave with:
- A concrete mental model of how AI agents support a job search.
- A copy of the instructor’s working example project you can study and reuse.
- Templates, code snippets, and a step‑by‑step guide you can revisit after the session to get your own version fully working.
- No prior technical experience is required, but you should be comfortable installing software and copying commands. If you hit environment issues during the live session, we’ll provide ways to follow along using prepared checkpoints so you can still absorb the patterns and process.
This session will be recorded. All registrants receive:
- The recording.
- Links to the example project.
- Written setup instructions and troubleshooting tips.
- Whether you’re a jobseeker, career coach, or a professional curious about operationalizing AI in your workflow, this workshop is designed to give you a realistic, experiment‑ready starting point, not a finished product.
What you’ll walk away with
- A reusable blueprint for building simple AI agents with modern tools.
- A prototype “Job Search Copilot” project (or access to a working example) that you can refine after the workshop.
- Practical patterns you can extend to other use cases beyond job hunting.
Finally, this session will be recorded. If you sign up and cannot make it, a recording will be sent to you.

You're either looking at a company to join, or you're trying to understand what your competitors are doing. Either way, you're researching blind—reading scattered reviews, googling company news, checking LinkedIn. It takes forever and you miss things.
Stop doing this manually.
In this workshop, you'll customize and deploy a working AI research agent in 3 hours. Fork an existing competitive intelligence agent, wire in your own data sources (RSS feeds, APIs, whatever's available), and run it. Feed it a company or industry keyword. Get back structured intelligence: recent news, hiring patterns, market positioning, gaps, red flags.
What you'll actually do:- Clone a working competitive intelligence agent from GitHub
- Add your own custom data sources (RSS feeds, open APIs, etc.)
- Test it live on a real company or competitor
- Walk away with a deployed agent you can run 100+ times
Two use cases, one agent:
- Job Seeker Mode — Research a company before you apply, interview, or accept an offer. Understand growth, hiring, leadership, red flags.
- Competitive Mode — Understand what competitors are doing, market gaps, hiring trends, strategic moves. For employees and side hustlers.
What you need before the workshop:
- 10 min of pre-work (optional, but recommended): Clone the GitHub repo, set up your API key, test it runs
- A laptop with a browser (Claude.ai)
- Basic comfort with Claude—you should already be asking it questions and iterating
After the workshop:
- Post-work recap doc: What you built, how to iterate, advanced techniques, troubleshooting
- Optional upsell: Advanced agent techniques course (separate paid offering)
This is NOT:
- A tutorial on "how to use AI"
- A guide to corporate strategy
- A tool for stalking or privacy violations (we cover ethical guardrails)
Price: $17–27 (one-time, includes materials + post-work doc)
Pre-work is optional. If you complete it, you'll hit the ground running. If you skip it, no problem—we'll set up during the first 20 minutes.2 attendeesHow to Become the Person Organizations Want to Promote

Build your career capital with the human skills that make you more valuable in the era of AI in the workplace.
Doing great work matters. Growing beyond your current role also means earning trust, communicating your ideas, navigating difficult conversations, and helping other people succeed.
The need for stronger leadership is real. Gallup’s State of the Global Workplace report, published in April 2026 using data collected January–December 2025, found that only 20% of employees worldwide were engaged at work. That finding highlights an opportunity to create workplaces where people feel connected and motivated to contribute. 2026 Global Data Summary - Gallup
Meanwhile, the World Economic Forum’s Future of Jobs Report, released January 8, 2025, identifies leadership, collaboration, resilience, and analytical thinking as critical skills alongside growing demand for AI and other technical capabilities. Employers also identify empathy and active listening among their core skills. World Economic Forum.
As AI changes how work gets done, how can you strengthen the human skills that help you stand out—and prepare for greater responsibility?
Join Albert’s List, Jean Steel of Happy People Win, and Ericka Scott of Ericka Alice Co. for a practical, engaging conversation about building your career capital: the skills, relationships, credibility, and judgment you bring to every opportunity.
Whether you’re pursuing a promotion, exploring your next role, or learning to lead without a management title, you’ll leave with ideas you can put to work immediately. Bring your questions and your real workplace challenges.
In this webinar, we’ll explore how to:- Make your contributions visible
- Build trust and influence: Listen well, strengthen relationships, and lead beyond your title.
- Demonstrate readiness: Show initiative, exercise judgment, and follow through on commitments.
- Strengthen your human advantage: Develop emotional intelligence and navigate difficult conversations as technology reshapes work.
- Choose your next step: Identify a leadership skill to strengthen and one action to begin practicing.
We’ll also introduce Emerging Leaders Advantage, a six-month program enrolling now for January 2027 start that helps participants develop practical skills for managing themselves and leading others.
Become the kind of leader others want to follow.1 attendeeHow to Build an eBay Reselling Side Hustle with AI in One Weekend

Register for this free webinar and walk away knowing exactly what it's worth — and how to sell it.The way people buy things is changing. Secondhand isn't a fallback anymore — it's often a first choice. especially with the holiday season coming up. Buyers are looking for quality, value, and items that aren't easy to find through retail. And in a world where availability and pricing vary more than ever depending on where you live, something common in your home might be exactly what someone in another market has been looking for.
That shift creates a real opportunity for everyday sellers — especially people who haven't thought of themselves as sellers before.
You don't need to buy inventory. You don't need a warehouse. You don't need a background in retail or tech.
You need to know what you have, what it's worth, and how to describe it accurately. That's what this webinar covers.## What You'll Learn
- How to identify an item you already own and find out exactly what it's worth
- How to use AI to evaluate condition accurately and price with confidence
- How to write a listing that sells and protects you from buyer disputes
- How to build a personal knowledge hub using NotebookLM so you're not starting from scratch every time you find something new
- A clear, realistic plan for getting your first listing live this weekend
## You'll Leave With
- A fully evaluated item ready to list — one you worked through yourself, during the session
- The AI prompts to repeat this process for everything else in your house
- A NotebookLM setup guide for your category
- A weekend action plan built around 1–3 items — not an overwhelming to-do list
- An exclusive discount code for the full course, valid for webinar attendees only
## Why This Matters Right Now
Consumer behavior is shifting in ways that favor secondhand sellers. More buyers are turning to resale platforms as a first choice — not because they have to, but because it makes sense. Supply chains are less predictable. Pricing varies widely across markets. And items that are easy to come by in one place may be scarce or expensive somewhere else entirely.
That means the things you already own have a buyer pool that's wider than you might think. And it means right now is a better time than ever to know what you have and how to sell it well.## About Your Host
Charles Costa, MLIS, is the creator of ResellingGuide.ai and a senior content strategist at eBay. He's been reselling since 2021, focusing on clothing and accessories sourced from estate sales and thrift stores. ResellingGuide.ai is his independent project — not affiliated with eBay.
## Optional Next Step
At the end of the webinar, you'll have the chance to join the full course: Launch a Profitable Reselling Side Hustle Using the Items You Already Own.
