Shy Kurtz
Before Shy Kurtz even started university in New York, he had already lived, worked, and served in over thirty countries. During Shy’s academic career he became an award-winning scholar, who obtained straight “A”s with uncanny certainty. Despite a shocking diagnosis of severe learning disabilities while at McGill Law School, Shy finished two law degrees in record time, while also working full-time as a Faculty Researcher. When he suddenly found himself a single father of two, he decided to stop collecting university degrees, and gave himself a final school project: to start applying his “A”-Technique in “the real world,” aka the private sector.
Now, Shy combines his skills in language, logic, law, and lore to address international acts and omissions that equivocate to “genocide” and human suffering, by structuring Canadian Government-registered programs that bring hundreds of millions of dollars (every year) of AIDS relief to world leading charities, NGOs, and to the Ministries of the Interior of embattled Sub Saharan African nations. Shy not only shows leading philanthropists and entrepreneurs around the world how to combine for-profit and nonprofit activities to achieve a “double bottom line”, but he inspires and empowers others how to apply the same principles to their career aspirations.
