A weekend at The Bass. Cultural transition panel, careers + cultures + capital tracks, and the after-party that ran past 2am.
The 2023 Miami gathering was structured around the four R's — reflection, recalibration, reinvestment, renewal. Four keynotes, five workshops on mindfulness, leadership, communication, and action-planning, plus a panel on cultural transition and the NHUB competition. Morgan Stanley's Tserenna Erdenebileg opened with what resilience actually requires after the pandemic years.
MIAMI — March 4–5, 2023. The 2023 gathering ran two days under the theme "Building Resilience" and was structured around what the program called the four R's: reflection, recalibration, reinvestment, and renewal. The keynote was given by Tserenna Erdenebileg, Managing Director at Morgan Stanley and CFO for the bank's global Institutional Equity Division. Joining Morgan Stanley in 2002, with a BA in Accounting from Baruch College and an NYU MBA, she opened the program with a reflection on personal strengths, structured self-assessment, and what resilience actually requires after the pandemic years.
The "Mongolians in Cultural Transition" panel brought three voices to the lectern: Ideruugan Galbaatar, an MPP candidate at Georgetown's McCourt School and consultant at the World Bank, with prior experience at the U.S. Embassy in Mongolia; Sodontuya Nerguidavaa, the youngest CFA charter holder in Mongolia, a UC Davis MBA, and one of Poets & Quants' 100 Best & Brightest MBAs in 2022; and Badmaa Purevjav, a CPA and Assurance Manager at PwC Chicago across pharmaceuticals, financial services, and industrial products. The stress-management workshop was led by Surenmaa, a Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction teacher certified by the Brown University Mindfulness Center. The full Miami lineup, including the closing keynote and the NHUB cohort, is still being reconstructed from the year's records.
Five interactive workshops ran across both days — Self-Reflection & Goal-Setting, Communication & Negotiation, Mindfulness & Stress Management, Leadership & Decision-Making, and a closing Restart Action-Planning Session. Surenmaa, a Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction teacher certified at Brown University Mindfulness Center, led the goal-setting and stress-management tracks. The NHUB project competition ("Надад Хэлэх Үг Байна") ran Day 2 morning. Three additional keynotes — Reframing Challenges as Opportunities, Self-Care & Positive Mindset, and Resilience & Perseverance — closed each major program block. Several speakers and judges from this edition are still being reconstructed from the archive.
