Want to meet, or even become friends with, a huge influencer? How about the President of the United States? In this episode, Michael Teoh shares how he turned his dream of meeting President Barack Obama into reality, and how you can use the same strategy to grow your influence with just about anyone.

Michael Teoh is a TEDx speaker, he was named PRESTIGE’s Top 40 under 40, and he’s a national youth icon in Malaysia. Now, Michael has spent the past 4 years interviewing globally successful, young high achievers (including one who is now in the running to become the youngest woman ever elected into the U.S. Congress!) and he has learned a lot about what it takes to become successful at any age. In fact, he says that success = people, so I asked him what that means and how to do it in this episode. He also told me exactly how he was able to get the President of the United States, Barak Obama, to attend one of his training sessions for his company he founded, Thriving Talents. To learn more about Michael Teoh and his new book, visit http://www.potentialmatrix.com.
