Starting the session on a high note, we have the incredible Michael Podolinsky! Join us as he unravels the secrets behind "Maverick’s Growth and Legacy in a Successful Speaking Career." 

Mike Podolinsky is a founding member of APSS, Global Speaking Fellow, CSP, and Speaker Hall of Fame. He also achieved the Harvard Higher Education Teaching Certificate (with a score of 95.5 out of 100) - all during his tenure with APSS!

Here's what you can look forward to:

• What it takes to get started as a new speaker
• Growing your content & subject matter, verbal and authorship skills, and making your words memorable as an intermediate speaker
• Encouragement and appreciation to the veteran speakers
• Mistakes made and lessons learned for all speakers 

Mike's journey has been nothing short of extraordinary. This year he will be 70 and will be moving to Mongolia, working primarily with English-speaking expats and helping fund and grow the two orphanages under his care.

This event is thus a significant and special one - it is Mike's Swansong, and he hopes to share and give back to the growth journey of other speakers and aspiring speakers. Come and join us to be inspired and wish Mike all the best in the next part of his journey!

Following Michael's talk, we have our inaugural 'Presidential Open Forum'. Featuring the incredible lineup of Past, Current and Future Presidents:

Raymond Thomas, Jerome Joseph, Kenneth Kwan, Guan Hin Tay, Arishta Khanna and President-Elect Sha-En Yeo. 

The evening will be hosted by the very talented Karolina Gwinner and Meital Baruch.
