TBTBSEE
Hey BLOG fans -
I'll be back with a full sized blog real soon, but right now, I just gotta thank everybody that was involved with the Tenth Anniversary TBSE Extravaganza. It really was TBTBSEE - The Best TBSE Ever!!
The atmosphere of fun, learning and enthusiasm were just plain overwhelming at TBSE this year. It was totally nuts. It's just one of those things that unless you were there is impossible to describe. Not even counting the over-the-top entertainment, I think it is safe to say that this was the most fantastic group of speakers ever to take the stage at a dental seminar - or possibly ANY seminar ever!!
What a thrill it was to meet and get to listen to Mark Burnett, the genius creator of Survivor, The Apprentice, and many more - heck - the guy invented reality TV. Same for Bob Eubanks. This multiple Emmy Award winner taught us so much about communication and made us laugh very hard while doing so. Speaking of laughing, I think that Brett Leake was so funny he caused some bladder control problems in the audience!
And how about the dental speakers? Dr. Bill Dorfman, Dr. Howard Farran, Dr. Mike DiTolla, Dr. Louis Malcmacher, Dr. Rod Kurthy and Dr. Mark Morin - you guys have given so much to our profession. It was an honor to have all of you at TBSE.
And then there were two very special speakers. Amanda Gore - you touched all of our hearts with a presentation that no one will ever forget. Wow - crying one minute, laughing the next, and with a finish that had everyone standing and screaming - I don't think I've ever seen anything like it! Oh yeah - speaking of standing and screaming - our "Special Guest" was truly beyond belief. If you don't know what I'm talking about - well - I guess you'll just have to get the DVD's!!
It took and incredibly dedicated and talented team to put this production on, and so many people deserve the biggest possible "thank yous!"
Our great seminar staff:
Mark Dent
Chris Evans
Jim Kappes
Anne Madow
Evan Madow
Lois Madow
Michelle Madow
Steven Madow
Mallory Marotz
Yoko Okamoto
Debbye Ring
Dolores Weinberger
Our Baltimore video team at Hocus Focus Productions:
Don Armstrong
John Armstrong
Julia Cray
Our Nashville based live production team (RCI):
Veronica Bozza
Eric Gordon
Phillip Icrhln
The entire crew at Delicate Productions
And three VERY VERY special people:
Rob Cowlyn, producer extraordinaire
Sally Dent, our amazing Seminar Coordinator
.....and to my brother, business partner, and co-executive producer Dave Madow. It's a great and strange experience working with you!!
Most of all though - thanks to the people that we truly could not do this without - the doctors and team members that attend TBSE. There could not be a nicer group of people on the face of the Earth. You guys are the winners of the profession, and you make all of us proud to be associated with you. We are humbled that you have chosen to spend three days of your lives with us, and really appreciate the incredible comments we got this year at TBSE. I hope to see you all next year!
If you are reading this and have not yet been to TBSE, or if you came a few years ago and haven't been for a while - you just gotta join us in New Orleans in 2005. I don't want to use the blogs to make a commercial post, so I'll just end it there by saying that all are welcome, and it is an experience that will change your life!!
Thanks for reading this. I'll be back soon with a more traditional (if that's possible) rant!
