End of Year Message – WFDSA Executive Director – Tamuna Gabilaia

As we enter 2021 and begin to look ahead, I want to extend my gratitude to all my colleagues and friends all over the world. These are unprecedented times we are living in with the current pandemic.  It profoundly affected the lives of millions of people around the world disabling entire communities and forever changing our lives.   However, through the many virtual meetings and conference calls, we’ve remained very connected by reaching into each other’s home offices and living rooms, while working through this time shared by everyone worldwide. Like every year, WFDSA and our member DSAs produced more results and helped to advance the cause of the industry worldwide despite all challenges presented to us by the pandemic.   We saw our industry has not only been resilient but has seen the wave of inspiring new ideas, innovation, adaptability and creativity even more than ever before. As our Chairman Roger Barnett said so well, it is an opportunity to look forward and to ‘Reimagine, Reinvent and Redefine’ the global direct selling industry. It is truly and amazing, inclusive and diverse industry I love so much which provides an income earnings opportunities to millions of people around the world and changes lives.

I want to thank the CEO Council, the Operating Group, the Association Advisory Council members and all our DSAs staff and company volunteers for all their contributions which make our progress possible. Wishing you all the most wonderful New Year!
