One Last Look…
I know what you’re thinking… “Hey, Raz has yet another one of those Susan Boyle/Paul Potts videos for us.” Well, actually I do but not for today. Though as I’m on it, there’s another really great video with a super touching story about an American guy who has a special relationship with his mom and just seems like [...]

So with all the fanfare with Susan Boyle and her amazing performance on “Britain’s Got Talent”, and my many many views of her performance in the last few days (to the point that my wife is teasing me), I’ve become captured with a few other great stories ofnormal people doing exceptional things that have been [...]

Wednesday, April 8, 2009
This is one of my first-ever predominantly video-blogs (vlogs), but it’ll tell the better story comprised of a few different clips from a great evening. Thanks to all the Phoenix leadership, including Barry and Connie Lucas, Kenny and Esmerelda Rossi, Ron Faunce, Dr. Jack Burns, and many many others who participated and helped. Thanks to [...]

Saturday, April 4, 2009
This entry started as what would be a combination of two events, Austin and Denver. Thus the name, Austenver. Then, I started looking at all the great pictures and people from Austin, and I just couldn’t bring myself to pull the two events together. As I type we’re en route to Denver, placing bets of whether [...]

My creativity brain cells are, I believe, starting to diminish. But the excitement on the road for Univera isn’t! Sometimes when I write these entries about the Road Tour I feel like it might read as a bit of over-enthusiasm for these events, but really, if they weren’t good events I either wouldn’t write about them [...]

Wednesday, April 1, 2009
Chi-town rocked tonight. It was a good sized group, about 150, but there were a lot of guests there. At least half. Probably more. And, Stephen? On fire. On message. Nailed the products. Was dead on time, exactly 20 minutes. Hilarious. With not one diversion. Yep, today we (re) introduced Stephen DVD. And while not quite as good [...]

Tuesday, March 31, 2009
I’ve got lots of New Jersey memories. My parents moved out there when I was in College, a big move for them. My younger sisters were all raised there. My parents home in New Jersey served as an escape after we lived downtown during 9/11, a place where we ended up staying for quite some time. [...]

Saturday, March 28, 2009
We arrived in Montreal on Wednesday night, with a bit of a prolonged adventure what with our RGL and NGL experience which I already addressed in another blog post. Thursday was a day of meetings regarding the Univera/Matol integration, with lots of leadership from Bijan and Jonathan. I can’t mention all the names of the great [...]

What a great song, it was perfect for this past Wednesday morning as a departure song but it was trumped by my gate experience that day. Since it’s the first official start of the Road Tour tomorrow morning I’ll use this as my beginning post for our many-city tour across North America to share the good [...]

Thursday, March 26, 2009
The reason I write in my blog is to connect with people. Not just from one segment of life, but from many. And as part of the thread of stories I try to share experiences and observations in leadership, volunteerism, wellness, as well as some stories that are simply personal experiences that fall in none of [...]
