Happy International Women's Day!

Dear Talentelle members,

It is with pride, respect and a sense of solidarity that I raise a glass to you all and to all the women out there on this special day dedicated to us ladies.

To your wit, your beauty, your passion, your courage, your ambition, your determination, but most of all, to your talent and success!

It's been one year and a month now that I've founded Talentelle with my co-founder and brother Peter and it has been an amazing journey so far, seeing and watching over 100 members in our Talentelle community grow, move forward and courageously pursue their dream of success in life.

We have been inspired by women whom we have met and worked with, and they have generously encouraged us to continue to develop innovative training solutions exclusively for women.

We feel very lucky and want to thank all of you for joining us in this exciting adventure. Together, we can succeed if we believe in ourselves. Nothing can stop us in the 21st century!

Happy International Women's Day!

Zoonie Nguyen, founder & director

Talentelle founder in the Montreal Gazette!

Talentelle launches Economic Options seminar

Yesterday, we launched the Economic Options (EO) seminar with a group of 5 participants. The EO seminar, based on the famous Cashflow Quadrant created by multimillionaire and best-selling author Robert Kiyosaki, was designed to help people fully and clearly understand the four economic options they have today: to work as an employee, as a free agent, as a business entrepreneur/owner, or as an investor.

This seminar goes beyond the book, as it explores in technical detail the various risks, skill sets, beliefs, mindsets and key success factors required to win in each of the quadrant.

Many thanks to Selene (Calef) for her close collaboration in developing the original materials for this seminar. Thank you, Selene!

For more information on upcoming EO seminars, please contact Zoonie Nguyen at zoonienguyen@yahoo.com or (514) 805-7366.

Talentelle delivers BMW workshop at Tyark College

Last Monday, November 20, trainer Peter Nguyen and facilitator Zoonie Nguyen delivered the BMW workshop to 23 Chinese students enrolled in the entrepreneurship programme at Tyark College (www.tyark.com) , located in downtown Montreal.

Participants showed great interest in the revolutionary framework introduced and explained during the workshop, which guides them to focus on three key areas of a startup, thereby dramatically increasing their odds of success in launching their new venture.

Tyark College has invited Zoonie and Peter to come back to teach more groups early next year.

BMW workshop launched!

By Peter Nguyen

Zoonie and I recently launched a new strategic business workshop called "BMW" (business model workout) at the Women Entrepreneurial Center of Quebec (www.cefq.ca). It's a workshop designed to help first-time entrepreneurs create a business model that actually works.

Once participants understand how to create such a business model, they can easily refine their model over time in order to radically improve their chances of success.
