Day Two, Session Two: a rainy start, a fantastic finish!
-
Where do you find Scott Bloom, Black Violin, Chris Gardner and nearly 2,500 Amway Global IBOs? In our opening day Business Meeting, of course! Doug DeVos, Steve Lieberman, Sandy Spielmaker and 
an impressive group of corporate executives joined an elite group of IBO leaders to address the group, provide state of the business updates and have some lighthearted fun in the form of the “IBO Show”. Business tips, encouragement, humor and some impressive prize packages – trips to next spring’s Kentucky Derby, the 2010 MLS Championship and January’s Super Bowl XLIV – what’s not to enjoy? Author, motivational speaker and business executive, Chris Gardner, brought IBOs and staff to their feet repeatedly as he recounted his life’s heartaches and triumphs as he pursued his dreams of success as a man, father and entreprenuer. What an incredible sendoff into the afternoon’s LOA breakout sessions!
Gratefully, the rain and cooler weather gave way to the beginnings of sunshine as IBOs headed out to the Disney® parks for the evening, although plastic ponchos and rain drops would not have been a deterrent for the hundreds of excited children and their parents headed to the Magic Kingdom® in search of Mickey® and Minnie®!
Emerald Pins and higher finished their days with an exclusive preview of the Business Expo, including a sneak peek at the Apple® iPod Touch® all Achievers will receive and the training area where IBOs can receive instruction on downloading and using the Amway Global business “app”. Second City performers were on hand as was IBOAI, photo opportunities…well, let’s not give it all away, just yet! We want all IBOs to have a chance to discover everything the Expo offers for themselves tomorrow!
