Money Expert Suze Orman, Who Encourages Women to Take Control of Their Financial Lives, Will Speak At Las Vegas Women's Leadership Conference

Suze Orman has been called “a force in the world of personal finance” and a “one-woman financial advice powerhouse” by USA Today. The two-time Emmy Award-winning television host and author of nine consecutive #1 New York Times best sellers will impart her wisdom at The MGM Resorts Foundation’s 12th annual Women’s Leadership Conference (WLC).

The conference will be held Aug. 27-28 at MGM Grand Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, NV.

“This is the year for women to truly own the power to control their destiny,” Suze Orman said. “I want them to know that financial freedom is their birthright!”

“We are elated to host Suze Orman in the WLC 2018 spotlight,” said Phyllis A. James, Chief Diversity and Corporate Responsibility Officer for MGM Resorts International. “The mere mention of her name makes people’s eyes light up because people know the value she brings. Suze can relate to what it’s like being in the trenches, living paycheck to paycheck, and she will inspire the conference attendees with real world advice on how to get ahead when it comes to personal finance.”

Orman was the contributing editor to “O” The Oprah Magazine for 16 years and for 13 years hosted the award-winning Suze Orman Show, which aired every Saturday night on CNBC.

Over her television career, Orman has accomplished what no other television personality ever has before. Not only is she among the most successful fundraisers in the history of public television, but she has also garnered an unprecedented eight Gracie awards, more than anyone in the entire history of this prestigious award.

The Gracie Awards recognize the nation’s best radio, television, and cable programming for, by, and about women.

Orman has been named twice by Time Magazine as one of the TIME 100, The World’s Most Influential People. Forbes named her one of the world’s “100 Most Powerful Women” as well as 18th on their list of The Most Influential Women in Media.

Orman was the recipient of the National Equality Award from the Human Right Campaign, the Touchstone Award from Women in Cable Telecommunications, and a Visionary Award from the Council for Economic Education. She was also presented with the Amelia Earhart Award for her message of financial empowerment for women.

Orman has an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree from the University of Illinois and an Honorary Doctor of Commercial Science degree from Bentley University.

Orman, who grew up on the South Side of Chicago, earned a bachelor’s degree in social work at the University of Illinois and at the age of 30 was still a waitress making $400 a month. Saturday Night Live has spoofed Suze six times which she considers one of her highest compliments.
