This exceptional CIOY Award 2020 candidate and author of, Year of the Woman 2020 and Beyond — is our very own, as the much loved Host of the Great and Relentless Few Show. She has inspired the masses and assisted businesses around the world for decades, and is one of the newest minority members of the by invite-only, Forbes membership. Her humility amid impressive credentials and accolades, are evidence of her lifelong labor of love in business - behind the scenes - repairing and growing businesses to massive scale for years as one of their best kept secrets. Now her geni-us is out of the bottle, for us all to partake! Sponsorship for the highly honored membership, is a God-send for Olivia, and is also a big step in the right direction, toward her next level, she shared in her interview.
“We are honored to welcome Olivia Friedman into the community,” said Scott Gerber, founder of Forbes Councils, the collective that includes Forbes Business Council. “Our mission with Forbes Councils is to bring together proven leaders from every industry, creating a curated, social capital-driven network that helps every member grow professionally and make an even greater impact on the business world.”

Olivia responded by saying, “My first business was a candy and snow cone store as a young girl, yet back then, I had no idea I would ever have any such affiliation as Forbes. It's an honorable development, becoming part of the Forbes Council on Business. I'm excited to have been invited on the basis of my past and current, laborious, but trusted, respected, and proven wealth building, business marketing strategy, and technology success." I credit my grandfather, great grandmother and parents for teaching me to remain relentless. I also thank leaders within the US Navy that believed in me when few others did. I thank key financial icons and notable servant leaders, including my ACP mentor. I was so impressed by the program, I decided to become a military veteran ACP military veneran business and technology mentor to do my part — yet another great honor and a great opportunity, to give back! Lastly, corporations who were there for me in a myriad of ways within both private and public sector I also thank—including Northrop Grumman, H&R Block Small Business Services, and Trans City Cab of Madison and Huntsville, AL. The United Nations and affiliated leaders and groups, have also assisted in my rise to professional influence in business, technology, marketing, and PR.
"I am honored to have been invited as well as sponsored into such a highly respected Forbes family membership. The value earned prestige, credibility and community recognition positions me for a heightened ability to assist businesses, and further empowerment toward a greater impact within my community. Such status enables me to help even more businesses and individuals - via this elite platform. My excitement in Forbes membership participation is unmatched as it will also help us at IHGS and G&RTV's Great and Relentless Few Show - toward further motivating and inspiring the masses, throughout troubled times. By participating, I am also setting a great example for young women of all backgrounds yet especially young girls and women of color. While solidifying my leadership role within the community, and beyond and as a compassionate female leader in tech, marketing, and media—Forbes business leader inclusion is definitely the icing on the cake, and the step forward that I needed to reach my next level."
