What If? The Life Changing Power of Curiosity and Courage | Van Lai-DuMone | TEDxCitrusParkWomen

Through the kindness and generosity of one Hollywood movie star, along with the tenacity and perseverance of 20 Vietnamese women - a entire industry was born.

These 20 maverick women, who had lost everything, including their country - paved the way for waves of Vietnamese women and men in the nail industry. 44 years later, the Vietnamese nail industry is now a $3 billion dollar industry. Born in Vietnam and raised in Southern California, after her family fled Vietnam as war refugees, Van watched her parents pave a new life for themselves. She saw first hand how creative thinking, innovation, and resilience can help people overcome their circumstances. She studied Psychology at the University of California, Santa Barbara and earned her MBA from Pepperdine University. She now uses those childhood lessons and over 15 years of corporate and start-up experience to rewrite the way we apply creativity in the workplace, instilling brave thinking in clients who are willing to disrupt traditional training methods. Her clients include gamechangers such as Google, LinkedIn, and MeUndies. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
