Denver Secrets revealed



Leaders come in all shapes and sizes and from many walks of life. And they convey themselves in some unique ways.

I had the privilege of meeting and chatting with Colorado's new Governor, Bill Ritter at a recent CSIA DemoGala 2007. I had been invited by the Canadian Consulate to exhibit my on-line Secret SellingTips sales leaders' success program.

I enjoyed listening to Governor Ritter and complimented him on his talk when we were chatting at my booth. One of the CO staff mentioned he had only recently been elected and was still getting into his role. My comment, "I hope he continues speaking his mind in an open and honest manner and doesn't fall into politician speak or think."

Mark LeBlanc rocks as NSA's new president

My friend and small business success cheerleader, Mark LeBlanc assumed the presidency of the National Speakers Assocation in San Diego. Mark... you rock.

Mark LeBlanc has been a long time member of the NSA and reminded those of us in the audience that it was the National 'Speakers' Association, not the national consultants, or make money in your pj's association. I say... preach it brother...

Mark set forth his goal as a return to this focus in our business. Not that doing consulting, writing, or other activities is wrong... many of us successfully do these to support our clients and extend our reach... but that we need to keep focused on who we are to grow our association.
Mark has been a leader in our industry for many years and now he will rock as NSA's president for 2007-2008.

Mark Sanborn honored with Cavett in San Diego


My friend and long time encourager Mark Sanborn was surprised with the honor of being this year's Cavett award winner. The Cavett is given by the National Speakers Association to one of their members who best lives the 'spirit of Cavett'. Mark certainly does that. Mark is an extremely generous man with his wisdom, his encouragement and his leadership. That has been the case in my life and my interaction with him over the past decade.

Way to go Mark! We love you....
