“Spring hasn’t yet come into its full swing… Regardless of the sunny days, the weather is still rather cold… which did not affect the warm and friendly atmosphere created by wonderful audience and our guest speakers during the first Spring WES: Galina Istomina (Russia) and Louis & Kathy Carrillo (USA).

Galina amazed everybody by the story of her professional life and success she had achieved in traditional business. She is now devoting all her time to her successful Amway business.

Louis & Kathy blew the audience with their bursting energy, determination and affection towards their occupation. Kathy brought sophistication, tenderness & favorable attitude to their speeches.

At the end of the seminar thousands of colourful balloons fell down onto the arena to remind our ABOs that bursting with colour Spring & Summer will soon come and we will see each other again to continue and enjoy the support of Network TwentyOne as ABOs build their Amway business…”

“Diamond Mike Wilson was the guest speaker from the USA at the WES March 2011, Turkey-Istanbul. The seminar was not easy for the Network TwentyOne cameramen since they had to follow him around the room as he could not stay on the stage! He walked from front to the back of the room and connected with hundreds of IBO’s by talking and looking into their eyes. What an amazing communicator!

After the end of the WES, we have talked many IBO’s and there were three common responses from everyone:

a) This is a business,

b) There is a proven system,

c) Anyone can do this as long as they have a desire to do “somthing more” in their lives.

We are grateful to Network TwentyOne to have such a great leader as the guest speaker.”

“We had a wonderful seminar in Istanbul on March 18-20.We might easily say that it was the most crowded event for the recent years, and the attendees were all inspired and fired up. Mike Wilson, the guest speaker, told all his stories and shared his experiences among the audience looking into their eyes. We had 20+ VIPs on the stage for recognition on Saturday evening, and they were all so proud of proving their initial successes. The leaders and their all ABOs also sent their prayers and best wishes to Jim Dornan for a speedy and complete recovery.”

2009 was a landmark year if for nothing else … it was the year I was “born”. It has been great and I have loved getting to meet so many of you and also interviewing so many of our global leaders. The Podcasts, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and this website have all been useful tools for spotlighting the amazing global community that is Network TwentyOne.

.

Amway turns 50 – What a great celebration and a statement about the viability and strength of the Amway business opportunity. I was fortunate enough to be in Ada and Las Vegas for the celebrations and the vision of so many leaders from around the world coming together to celebrate Amway’s success.

.

Network TwentyOne celebrated “20 Years of Excellence” in Las Vegas with hundreds of Diamonds and above from around the world. As John Maxwell pointed out in addressing the Network TwentyOne Diamonds, “the global leadership team of Network TwentyOne is truly unprecedented and to be respected for the achievement it represents.” And it is in just such an environment with so many leaders brought together from over 25 countries that we begin to recognize the strength and power of our “global community”.

Jim and Nancy Dornan were recognized for achieving 50 FAA points and spotlighted in Amway’s Achieve magazine (click here to read the article). In addition to this Jim and Nancy were presented with a check from Amway for $2,000,000.00 in Washington DC at our annual Free Enterprise conference… and yes that is their new Hawker 800 jet in the background that they spent their FAA bonus on. Nothing like seeing leaders reinvesting their earnings back into building their business.

.

Network TwentyOne launched it’s 1st iPhone application which while not changing the way anyone is building their business, showed it’s globally affiliated business owners that they are serious about embracing technology in unique and relevant ways. Also look for major changes to Channel-21 this year that will, amoung other things, allow subscribers to view the streaming content from their smart phones.

.

Network TwentyOne North America launched it’s new website (www.n21.com) and with it a new video on it’s homepage entitled “We’re Not Guessing“. Look for a similar look and feel on other Network TwentyOne websites including n21corp.com in 2010 as we continue to invest to support Network TwentyOne affiliated business owners around the world.

.

We added iReport to n21guy.com to allow Network TwentyOne affiliated business owners from around the world to submit photos and short articles from the events they attend.

.So that is just some of the “sweet happenings” in the world of Network TwentyOne … but certainly not a complete list by any means… have something to add??? Do so in the comments section below as I’d love to hear from you.

To that end I have set up a new page on n21guy.com called The Dornans Spotlighted. And what better way to kick off a focus on the Dornan’s achievements than to bring you the the latest article written about them in the December 2009 edition of Achieve Magazine.
