True Visionary
April 01, 2002
Chips & Putts
With budgets reduced for this year's golf events, multi-skilled entertainers are suddenly more appealing to planners. One veteran of the business-golf circuit who fits the bill is Robert Channing, a "mentalist" whose act moves seamlessly from the golf course to the podium.
Channing tours North America more than 250 days each year, impressing business golfers with his ability to play competitively while blindfolded. He's often asked by planners to play an entire round with one VIP foursome, or to play one hole with each foursome in an event, challenging anyone to outscore him. But with his ability to hit the ball more than 200 yards off the tee and putt consistently, Channing humbles most attendees.
When the golf is finished, Channing again demonstrates his mental acumen by blindly navigating a golf cart through an obstacle course. And once dinner begins, he takes center stage to explain how the untapped abilities of attendees' minds, including the power of visualization, can help achieve specific business goals, advance their careers -- and even impress their golfing buddies. His fee: $15,000 to $25,000 per day, plus travel. (315) 735-9667; www.robertchanning.com.
