DUBLIN, Calif., Aug. 20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- TriNet, a
leading provider of comprehensive human resources for small and
medium-size businesses (SMBs), today announced the addition of
Kai Lenny, one of the world's most
accomplished and complete watermen, and Keith Teboul, a skilled surfer and windsurfer,
and a leading shaper in the water sports industry, to its roster of
thought leaders and influencers at the 2nd annual,
award-winning, TriNet PeopleForce 2021. The four-day
conference will be held in person from The Times Center in
New York City (built by renowned
architect Renzo Piano) and virtually
from anywhere. The event will kick off on September 13 with an impressive roster of
distinguished speakers sharing timely and insightful content vital
to business success and the future of work.
Eight-time world champion Kai
Lenny is a truly diversified water athlete with expertise in
big wave surfing, stand-up paddle surfing and racing, tow-in
surfing, windsurfing, kite surfing and foiling. In 2019 he was
inducted into the Surfers' Hall of Fame in Huntington Beach Calif., the Hawaii Waterman
Hall of Fame and Le Walk of Fame des
surfeurs inauguré à Anglet in France. He is the youngest surfer to ever
receive each of these respective honors. That same year he was also
awarded Waterman of the Year by the Surf Industry Manufacturers
Association.
Teboul is a leading shaper in the windsurfing and surfing
industries, as well as founder of two companies: online windsurfing
gear provider Quatro and KT Surfboards. As a shaper, he has been an
integral part of the growth and design of boards and other products
related to the surfing phenomenon of foiling—one of the fastest
growing sports today.
On September 15 at 2:45 p.m. EST, Lenny and Teboul will share the
stage in a discussion focused on resiliency and risk—topics that
both Lenny and Teboul have mastered throughout their careers. They
will discuss the competitive nature and appropriate risk-taking
necessary to succeed while also being a methodical, disciplined and
organized professional.
"When I think of the type of individuals who have needed to
overcome their limitations, be brave in the face of fear, and
persevere with grit and determination, I think of such renowned
professional athletes as Kai and Keith," said TriNet Senior Vice
President, Chief Marketing Officer and Chief Communications
Officer, Michael Mendenhall.
"Succeeding and winning world championships in the
ultra-competitive surfing industry, as peak athletes and as
successful business owners, takes resiliency and the type of
unwavering personal and work ethic that has propelled both these
men to the top of their careers. Their stories will inspire and
motivate the business leaders at TriNet PeopleForce."
Lenny has received many accolades across a multitude of water
sports, including the 2012 World SUP Race Champion, 2012 Hawaii
Island Finals SUP Pro Winner, Sunset Beach SUP Pro Winner, 2013 SUP
Race World Champion, 2013 SUP Wave World Champion, 2013 SUP Overall
World Champion and 2013 Vice KSP Kiting World Champion. In 2020,
Lenny won the Nazaré Tow Surfing Challenge at Praia do Norte in Portugal—a contest that
included the best big wave riders in the world.
Lenny's book Big Wave Surfer chronicles through photos
the world of big wave surfing with incredible stories from his own
experience and insight from other big wave riders. He dedicates
much of his time to raising awareness about plastic pollution in
the ocean and the dangers of microplastics, and is known for
leading big beach clean-ups all over the state of Hawaii.
Teboul began shaping in 1997 and has been the go-to shaper for
many professional surfers and windsurfers. He is a driving force in
windsurfing today and launched the successful windsurf company
Quatro. In 2014, he expanded his horizons and created the company
KT Surfboards.
