Team TAG pumped after National Conference in Atlanta

Team TAG attended their US National Conference held this year at the Hyatt in downtown Atlanta, Georgia. After flying in on Friday afternoon and enjoying the sights in the city, the team enjoyed networking mixers, motivational speakers, and educational workshops all weekend.

This year's general session speaker was wrestler Anthony Robles.  Despite being born with only one leg, Robles trained and persevered to win a NCAA championship during his senior year at Arizona State University.  The theme of his talk was "Unstoppable" and spoke about the various challenges he faced and how he overcame them.

In addition to speakers and workshops, the team took home some much deserved awards.  The admin team, Manilynn Disuanco and Ellesse Wong, took home Tiffany's jewelry for being in the top 10% in the nation.  Team TAG President, Jaime Hepp, accepted the Million Dollar Club Award on behalf of the ICL accruing over a million dollars in revenue last year.

Overall, the conference was a huge success as an opportunity to connect with fellow business professionals, enrich our selves and become even more pumped up to hit our goals for the rest of the year!

Team Leaders Teach Career Workshop

Two of TAG's best team leaders, Jinu Park and Mirza Ulasoglu, spent their Friday afternoon volunteering at the Boys and Girls Club of Venice.  They participated in leading a career workshop teaching teens on how to prepare for interviews and impress future employers.  They definitely made the experience enjoyable and memorable for the teens.

“The session prepared me for what I will encounter during a real job interview.  It was fun and intense at the same time, but I learned how to handle myself under pressure and what types of questions to expect and therefore I now know how to prepare.  It was interesting because the session wasn’t typical and boring, it was very interactive and it made all of us practice this important skill” – Max Ericastilla  12th grader from Venice High School

Team TAG is constantly involved with various events at the Boys and Girls Club of Venice including their annual Silent Auction, Thanksgiving Dinner, and Dodgeball Tournament.
