What Brigitte says about her experience as Yes Group London Chair:
Yes is the culmination of what the Robbins Grad community is. The Yes group is the living proof of what is possible when only a few individuals consistently put their focus, energy and talents into the same direction. As Chair I had the privilege to witness the growth of the group from 20-800 members in just 4 years. I learnt to become a much better and professional speaker, Glynn at AV had to point out that I should NOT go on stage chewing gum! I became aware that the Yes group was a place where people came to connect, get inspired, fired up again, and really keep the momentum going towards their dreams that they typically started at a Tony Robbins event. I achieved so much for my own personal growth, such as participating in Ironman, being promoted to Trainer in the Robbins environment, where I was able to lobby for the group and grow the membership, writing the newsletters, growing the database, helping to grow the Basket brigade. What my biggest win was to get the sense of community that is so important for people, the 7th Power, your peer group. We are only going to be as successful as the expectations of our peer group, and as such the Yes groups and other grad communities have a huge role to play. We overestimate what we can do in a year and underestimate what we can achieve in a decade. The Yes group is living proof of that, many of the members who have been around for a while have achieved massive results, much as a direct result of being part of this group, myself included. And about our very special 15th Year Anniversary celebration: Best event of the year, no doubt, EVERYONE (honestly, even in Hollywood) is talking about it and thinking of coming along!!!
