Larry Carlton
Mark Zupan
Gilbert Tuhabonye

Dr. John C. Maxwell

John Alexandrov

Larry Carlton, guitarist and composer of the theme to the hit series, Hill Street Blues, was faced with a choice: go solo or to continue as a less risky, more lucrative session guitarist for prominent musicians. Fortunately he chose the former and has recorded under his own name since 1978.

Over his career, Carlton has won three Grammys and his studio credits include: Steely Dan, Joni Mitchell, Michael Jackson, Sammy Davis Jr., Herb Alpert, Quincy Jones, Bobby Bland, Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt and literally dozens of others.

Mark Zupan is what he is: a world class athlete with a rock star personality. What sets Zupan apart is the wheelchair, his most reliable source of mobility since a spinal cord injury paralyzed him nearly 12 years ago. The chair is also the primary tool he uses while playing wheelchair rugby, showing the world who he is and who we all can be.

Zupan’s competitiveness at quadriplegic rugby brought him national attention as one of the stars of the Oscar-nominated documentary Murderball, the story of his team’s performance in the 2002 Paralympics.

Gilbert Tuhabonye was born in the southern county of Songa in Burundi. Tuhabonye developed a love for running at a young age and became national champion in the 400 and 800 meters as an 11th grader. As a senior, Tuhabonye's goal was to use his talent to earn a scholarship to an American school, get an education and return home to Burundi.

Fate had another plan for Gilbert.

Now more than 8,000 miles from Burundi, Gilbert Tuhabonye is a celebrity in the world of running.

John C. Maxwell is an internationally recognized leadership expert, speaker and best-selling author who has sold over 13 million books. Maxwell is was one of 25 authors and artists named to Amazon.com's 10th Anniversary Hall of Fame and has been awarded the number 1 rank on the international Leadership Gurus survey for 2007 and 2008.

Maxwell's organizations have trained more than 2 million leaders worldwide and every year he speaks to Fortune 500 companies, international government leaders, and organizations as diverse as the United States Military Academy at West Point and the National Football League.

As Senior Partner of a law firm he founded at age 25, John Alexandrov has personally represented entrepreneurs, business owners and financial institutions that have become business success stories right accross Massachusetts.

As a private banker and business advisor Alexandrov has guided countless business owners and entrepreneurs through the start-up, development and growth of their businesses.

Alexandrov has had over 200 articles published world-wide and authored several bestselling books including Affirmations of Wealth, Your Spiritual Gold Mind and The Money Chi.
