1st July already! I flew to Belfast early this morning and delivered the first of this quarter’s dental workshops – Q3 on The Patient Journey and Ethical Selling Skills. Barbara is actually in Oxford at Ashley Latter’s 2-day Ethical Selling Course – I felt quite lonely arriving at the hotel without her trusty company and

Day 1 of the Coaching Business School Intensive – 18 clients in the British Columbia room at the Fairmont Royal York. Outside in the hotel lobby a full-scale film crew shooting “Truth and Justice” a new movie starring Ben Affleck and Adrian Brodie (The Pianist). Last night after dinner we watched Adrian being filmed –

I’ve waited over 5 years for this “gig” and last night we began an 11 date tour of the UK. What I had not anticipated (even though I had been told) was the sheer numbers of people who attend. About 800 at The National Motorcycle Museum last night and I am told upwards of 8000

The final leg of my journey from Toronto involves a long stop over at Heathrow before a short hop 200 miles North to Manchester and my UK apartment (thankfully, a 10-minute cab ride).

Monday’s Edinburgh workshop was a nice relaxing change as there were only about 15 people in the room. We are just starting to make an impression in Central Scotland after many years of patient waiting for the embedded NHS mentality to begin shifting – its interesting that the Government’s new proposals for Health Service dentistry

Its such a blast – 80+ people in Leeds today and we laughed, worked hard and covered business finance and team building. Workshop delivery is one of my unique abilities and a place I love to be – no matter how “tough” life is, entertaining an audience who appreciate what you do – and seeing
