| A Personal Networking Note from Christel for September 2009 |
|
Coaches and trainers alike will tell you - peak performance can only be maintained through practice, and by revisiting the basics regularly. Tiger Woods doesn't win every golf tournament he plays. Former Toronto Blue Jays right fielder, Joe Carter didn't hit a home run every time he stepped up to the plate. And professional tennis player, Serena Williams, didn't achieve the World No. 1 ranking by the Women's Tennis Association on 4 separate occasions by sitting at home watching television. These elite athletes trained hard to achieve their status. The same philosophy is true in BNI. BNI Golden Horseshoe Leadership Teams are now half way through the tenures. Its time to refresh, renew and re-energize through Advanced Leadership Training for Presidents, Vice Presidents and Secretary Treasurers. There's a lot at stake. Only one of the BNI Golden Horseshoe Region chapters will become Chapter of the Year. Advanced Leadership Training provides the opportunity to reassess chapter goals, share best practices and fine tune their BNI chapter so they can compete to be Number One! Advanced Leadership Training took place on September 14th. At your next chapter meeting - say thank you. for going back to the basics on our behalf! Did you know? From April 1 August 27, 2009, the reported revenue from BNI Golden Horseshoe chapters has surpassed $3.0 million. He shoots he scores! (and so do all BNI members). Can you imagine what that number would be like if every member in every chapter was participating in the Show Me The Money program? Staggering. |
Kudos to the Top Producing Chapters

. I have been more than pleased with my involvement with the BNI Corporate Strategic Partners and I am proud to serve as their President. Our Chapter has evolved into a team of well trained referral partners. Meeting weekly, listening to each others infomercials and supporting the efforts of individuals as well as the team has clearly defined the benefits of the givers gain mentality. Each member of the team is looking for ways to make valuable introductions happen for the other members of the group. They are listening with better skills so they can best align business contacts from their contact sphere with the valuable resources available in the chapter. On a personal note, I have enjoyed both the benefits of new business garnered from introductions made by chapter members and the pleasure of being able to help my fellow BNI business partners succeed. For me, it is a win/win situation. Do you have a testimonial or referral success story that you'd like to share? Let us know! |
