Maia Facilitates the 2011-2012 MPI-THCC Board Retreat in Austin, Texas
Joe Bedsole, President of the Texas Hill Country Chapter of Meeting Professionals International, met Maia 21 years ago in Corpus Christi, Texas. In the mid-90s, they both served as members of this board. So when Joe became President-elect of the board last June, he called on Maia to bring her strategies for Powerful Presence to Austin and facilitate his board retreats on June 5-6, 2011 and in January 2012. It was quite a thrill to return to Texas after over 12 years away. It was a privilege to work with Joe (just right of Maia in the photo above) and his phenomenal Board! The June Powerful Presence Luncheon was the Best Ever! Every seat at the table was filled for the June Luncheon. Our topic was Self-Appreciation; we started the discussion with everyone's insights about how challenging it can be for most women. Once we'd identified our barriers, Alumni of the Journey to Powerful Presence offered several strategies for Self-Appreciation that they'd learned in class. We wrapped it up with the opportunity for everyone to experience one simple strategy right at the table. Even though we conclude our lunch at 1:30, there were several after-lunch conversations going on in the room an hour later.

On June 2, Kim Parry, the COSE Home Business Network leader, invited Maia to share her Powerful Presence Strategies for COSE members in her original program, The Other Side of Sales: Creating Successful Customer Relationships.
