My dear readers and followers. This morning while I was working on two video projects , an urgent email got my attention from the Head of International Affairs. I was informed that I received the Star Award for Quality Leadership, Innovation and Excellence in the Gold category at the International Star for Quality Convention. The ceremony will take place in Geneva, Switzerland, in April 13rd and 14th.

I am very excited to be there and meet wonderful organizations, innovators, inventors, politicans,TV stations, film producers along with journalists from 180 countries.

This award is the outcome of the research and analysis carried out by Quality Hunters, leaders, entrepreneurs and Quality experts, directed by BID Group One and Business Initiative Directions, which recognizes my contribution in terms of leadership, quality, innovation and excellence.

The BID Quality Achievement (BQA) Selection Committee has based their decision on the criteria of the QC100 Total Quality Management model.

The International Star for Quality Convention 2019 in Geneva has the following programmed meetings:

– Opening Ceremony
– Presentation by each participating organization
– Seminars presented by BID Group One in conjunction with the Technical University of Madrid (Universidad Politécnica de Madrid – UPM)
– Networking meeting with participating organizations with media coverage
– Gala Awards Dinner
– Closure of the Convention with sessions of video and photography
– Interview with Maria Johnsen focused on social media intelligence

Last year the Russian TV Station Weitmedia called me from Moscow out of blue while i was on set. They arranged a one hour program for me and planned to broadcast it nationwide in entire Russia, I could not go as I was in the middle of filming. It was a great honor to be appeared on national TV 🇷🇺 but I could not go. They were disappointed but they understood my situation.

I am so grateful for being recognized around the world by companies, organizations, Radio and TV stations.
