Today, Ngaire Cannon, my Australian distributor and I are off to Melbourne. The almost four-hour flight on Air New Zealand was on a gorgeous Boeing 777. We’ll be making a beeline for the new convention center and setting up the Cannon Communications trade stand for the Parker Seminar.
Co-sponsored by the Australian Spinal Research Foundation and Parker Seminars, this event is a fundraising effort designed to help pay for chiropractic research. Thankfully, they realize that there is little need for more low back pain studies and have concentrated most of their work in the areas of organic complaints and quality of life issues.
When you’re a speaker, you get to see a different side of an organization than attendees (called delegates in Australia). And I must say, in all the years I’ve been speaking in front of chiropractic audiences around the world, I have never felt so well looked after. No fruit plate and card here! I came back to my room after the team appreciation dinner and my room looked like a fruit stand and someone had robbed the health food store. Amazing.
