Patrick Valtin delivered his famous “sales Strategies” seminar to more than 170 attendees. It was a great success and many practical drills were performed by the public.

Taiwan is truly a unique country. People are very enthusiastic, hard workers and always willing to learn more. The food is great and Taiwanese have an exclusive sense of hospitality.

Patrick Valtin was also invited to deliver a special sales lecture in Guangdong, China. A rapidly expanding city, Guangdong hosts hundreds of factories. It also has more 5-star hotels than any other city in China – the obvious sign of a strong international economic presence.

“Effective company and competent personnel – how to create business expansion and your success”

XI Annual WISE CIS Convenion 2007 took place in a beautiful place – recreation center “Pokrovskoye”, 50 km from Moscow – from 4th till 7th of October.  When we came to the place through weekend traffic jams of Moscow and Moscow suburbs  “Pokrovskoye” met us with cheerful lights.

285 people (Highest Ever!) took part in the convention – the business owners and executives who apply LRH admin tech in their companies, some staff of such companies and also their partners and clients who have been invited to the convention by WISE members and WISE consultants. Representatives of seven CIS and Baltic countries (former Republics of Soviet Union) from dozens of cities were present at the convention.

Some of the slides from the President’s presentation:

Then a special guest of the convention a WISE consultant Patrick Valtin came up on the stage to deliver the first seminar.

The subject was “How groups operate. What to do to prevent them from a breakdown. The tools to make groups more effective”. There were different questions from attendees

and practicals during his talk.

Nobody stayed impassive.

?

He also delivered a short seminar for newcomers on his favorite subject “Basic data on sales. Components of understanding”

and a seminar for the whole audience “A Code of a WISE member – protection for your business!”

The convention program was very intensive.

CO WISE CIS Vladimir Kuropiatnik delivered a seminar “The WISE Membership Orgboard. Benefits of a WISE member”. The attendees got a better reality on what is WISE and what is the role of every WISE member on the WISE orgboard.

Some WISE members gave examples of their activities. On the picture below: the President of Moscow Business Expansion Club Artem Babakhanov talks about BEC activities. (BEC Moscow has been a winner of the International BEC Birthday Game for the last 3 years.)

There were a number of round tables which draw a lot of attention and were very successful. CO WISE CIS conducted a round table on how to organize in-house training for a company. Over 80 people came to share their own successful actions and to learn others’ experience. At the end everybody who didn’t have yet an in-house academy raised their hands on the question “who has decided to open an academy this year?”.

Another round table which got a lot of interest was “Consultants’ activities – orientation on product. MAKH implementation in clients’ companies; problems and solutions”.  

And of course there was a round table “How to make your BEC productive and attractive to public. Successful actions on how to organize a BEC”. This round table was traditionally conducted by the Membership Activation Officer Sergey Hohlenko (who is responsible for MAKH programs implementation) and the President of BEC Moscow Artem Babakhanov.

During the breaks the attendees could get promo materials, magazines, info letters about WISE activities and Hubbard management tech,

could buy LRH books and materials.

Leading WISE consultants delivered a few seminars on the subjects, which has been chosen based on survey results.

A WISE consultant from Saint Petersburg Vlad Musatov delivered a seminar “How to implement the Model of Admin Know-How programs fast. How to get support from your staff and expand stably”:

A WISE consultant from Ukraine Aleksander Vysotskiy delivered a seminar “Key functions of the owner”:

Another WISE consultant from Moscow Vladimir Sidorenko delivered a seminar on a very personal subject “A Code of Honor”:

There were many practicals in that seminar

There was also a briefing for Charter WISE members. Charter Committees of different regions prepared PowerPoint presentations and videos about their activities, their products and about plans for the future.

Presentations got a lot of interest and generate support and participation from the audience:

Traditionally all who renewed their WISE membership or became a WISE member for the first time got WISE T-shirts. Below are the ones who got their acknowledgement at the first day of the convention.
