Ken Kladouris is an esteemed wealth advisor and author of Get There!: Chart Your Course to Financial Abundance and Live the Life You Desire. Ken believes life should be lived, by design. Charting his own course in the wealth management industry, Ken earned the respect of his peers and the trust of his clientele.

Outside the office, Ken’s love of the ocean led him to pursue sailing. It is there that he also found his passion to give back to the community. In his spare time, he can be found with friends and loved ones aboard a powerboat, sailboat or at community events.

Described by her clients as a “shapeshifter” who “can coach business owners through any challenge at any stage of their business,” Keziah helps small business CEOs navigate the operational and existential challenges of scaling up, pivoting, and/or selling a business they’ve put their blood sweat and tears into. As the founder of the independent advisory firm Cassia Partners, she provides tailored solutions that incorporate elements of design thinking and behavioural science.

Keziah holds a BS in Physics from Stanford University and an MBA from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania.

Guy Bauer is the Founder and Creative Director of Umault, an agency that makes wildly creative B2B video marketing campaigns people actually want to watch. Guy has been making commercial videos for over 20 years and is the author of Death to the Corporate Video: A Modern Approach that Works. He started the agency in 2010 after a decade of working in TV, film, and radio.

Umault is a play on umlaut, the diacritical mark (you know, those German two dots loved by heavy metal bands). The umlaut draws attention to what would otherwise be overlooked, and isn’t that the point of great marketing? Umault’s goal is to make sure an amazing product or service stands out in a sea of mediocre content.

Guy believes that in video marketing, the idea is everything and his fleet of creatives and producers excels at shepherding an idea through the entire process, from concepting to scripting through to delivery of the final videos. When he isn’t helping his clients tell a story that resonates and delights while hitting all of their key messages and business prompts, Guy enjoys spending time at his home in Chicago with his two young children and kicking himself for being a Cincinnati Bengals fan.

Charles Camisasca spent 6 years working as a Technology & Management Consultant for some of the largest and most recognizable brands in the US, like Procter & Gamble, JP Morgan, Nissan, Wells Fargo, and Lockheed Martin.

However, entrepreneurship always seemed to be calling him. Since 2018, Charles has been starting and growing e-commerce businesses. His 4 brands have done hundreds of thousands in sales and allowed him to quit his full time consulting job.

Most recently, Charles became inspired to help others to start and grow their online businesses. The E-Commerce Boardroom is the intersection of his experience as a leading management & technology consultant and his expertise in e-commerce. “The Boardroom” (as it’s known to brand insiders) offers a library of free best practices for aspiring entrepreneurs. In 2021, Charles published his first book, ‘How to Start and Grow an E-Commerce Business’, to share his unique e-commerce methodology with the world.

Up next for Charles is the release of the Boardroom App, a SaaS data management tool for e-commerce entrepreneurs, scheduled for Q2 of 2021.

Sky Stephens is the co-founder of the Association of Professional Builders, a business coaching company dedicated to improving the residential construction industry for both builders and consumers. Sky is a firm believer that residential home builders deserve to be earning more money for the service they are providing and that consumers deserve a superior service than they currently receive. The problem is the difficulty of delivering world-class service on tiny margins, or without having the proper systems in place.

In order to maximise client experience and overcome these difficulties, the Association Of Professional Builders helps builders systemise their building company. The result is an improved client experience which leads to more demand. This allows an increase in margins and ultimately the ability to scale their businesses into desirable building companies that possess real value and can be sold as an asset.
