<p>I am delighted to confirm my attendance at the MDRT Europe ClassIQ Meeting on 2nd-4th February 2011, in Athens, Greece. </p>
<p>MDRT is the place where i am inspired, discover new ways of doing things, build friendships, get help from others, develop networking opportunities &#8211; and its the place where I remember just how lucky I am to be part of a prestigious group of professionals, from over 80 countries. It&#8217;s too easy to make an excuse not to join. It&#8217;s too easy to question whether you can afford it. And it&#8217;s too easy to say you don&#8217;t have the time. MRDT members are the world&#8217;s most successful because they know, from experience, that they cannot afford NOT to be part of MDRT.</p>
<p>Please join us if you can.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here are a few testimonials from the annual MDRT conference 2009:</p>
<p>&#8220;You packed in an abundance of value into one hour, thank you very much.&#8221; Yisorel Sandel, Delsan Group.</p>
<p>&#8220;You have a great, comfortable and commanding speaking style.  You had the audience mesmerized.  Your story is touching and simply sharing it will change lives.&#8221; Jennifer Borislow, Borislow Insurance.</p>
<p>&#8220;You were on top form.  It was clear to see that you had thought long and hard about what you were going to deliver, and on top of that you put in the ground work and it showed on the day.  Without doubt you are one of Britain&#8217;s best speakers and the best at this year&#8217;s MDRT.  Everyone who saw you was proud of you.&#8221;  Philip Evans, Philip Evans Financial Services</p>
<p>&#8220;The session with Mr Forte was the best of the sessions I saw (including Main Platform).  What I&#8217;m trying to say is: the conference was 100% great but Mr Forte went beyond.  The way he spoke to us was far more than a technical or industry only session, it was a truly global view of our business and how we really touch the life of so many people.  He made an excellent combination between technical ideas, inspiration, bio and peoples way of thinking.&#8221;  Luis Ochoa, Coberturas Vitales Consultores SC</p>
<p>&#8220;As always, wonderful job on your presentation, You are one of the great industry speakers for our generation.&#8221;  Brad Elman, 5 time MDRT Speaker.</p>
<p>&#8220;Everyone that attended agreed that it was one of the best sessions ever.&#8221;  Lou Pierce, Plybon &amp; Associates</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sandro is both thrilled and honoured to have been appointed as a Divisional Vice President (DVP) of MDRT&#8217;s Practice Management Division for 2009/2010 year.</p>
<p>This particular DVP role involves managing and guiding three different commitees, submitting subsequent recommendations to the Executive Committee and participating in Management Council meetings, each quarter, at locations throughout the United States.</p>
<p>Despite numerous other roles in MDRT since he became a member, the prestigious invitation was extended by the incoming President, Guy Baker, in recognition of Sandro&#8217;s outstanding contribution to MDRT both through his leadership qualities as UK Chair and for the groundbreaking marketing ideas submitted and implemented as part of his committee duties.</p>
<p>In addition to this, Sandro was also a Focus Session speaker at this year&#8217;s conference in Indianapolis; the fourth time he&#8217;s been either a Main Platform or Focus Session speaker.</p>
<p>Sandro has been a Top of the Table member for 12 consecutive years and is also an Inner Circle member for the fifth year running and a Diamond Knight of the Foundation.</p>
