Millennials on the rise
FIRST PACIFIC LEADERSHIP ACADEMY SHEDS LIGHT ON THE NEW GENERATION WITH ITS UPCOMING E-TALKS:
A GENERATION born during the technological boom, millennials have earned, quite unfairly, the title of being an “entitled” bunch. Described by Time
Magazine in 2013 as the “Me, Me, Me” generation, these young adults are now stepping up and proving everyone wrong with their creativity, innovative ideas and unique world views.
First Pacific Leadership Academy (FPLA), the first corporate university established by Manuel Pangilinan, sheds light on the misunderstood generation in its newest Executive Talk (E-Talk) to be held today, 1 p.m. at Griffins Hall, FPLA Academy, Antipolo City.
Titled “Millennials on the Rise,” the E-Talk focuses on how millennials have successfully overcome their challenges and carved a place for themselves in the world. For this exciting event, FPLA invites concert director Paolo Valenciano, political consultant and Habitat for Humanity Youth ambassador Brian Poe Llamanzares, and Voyager Business managing director Dindo Marzan to lead the discussion.
As the son of famous Filipino superstar, Gary Valenciano, Paolo is a performing artist and creative director in his own right. He has directed the many concerts of his father, one of which won Concert of the Year at the 2015 PMPC Star Awards for Music. As an artist, he has released his own album entitled Silence/
Noise under Star Records, which was thrice nominated during the 2015 PMPC Star Awards for Music.
Featured as one of the 30 Game Changers in the February 2017 issue of Lifestyle Asia, Brian Poe has wide experience in politics, business and entertainment. He was a former correspondent for CNN Philippines, former supervising legislative staff officer of his mother, Sen. Grace Poe, and a campaign coordinator during the last presidential elections.
Joining the roster of speakers is Dindo of Voyager Business, the customer facing unit of Voyager Innovations which provides consultancy services on digital transformation. A graduate of the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology in Australia, Dindo worked for Globe Telecom and ABS-CBN Corp. He has over a decade of experience in IT, marketing and communications, with expertise on digital media. His resume displays his knowledge of digital maturity in the Philippines and the role played by digital millennials.
