”Nothing is impossible – just do it”

From European Amagram February 2007

That is the motto of Max Schwarz, who has achieved the highest distinction in Europe to date: Founders Crown Ambassador 50. With these six words he not only means to get on with something, but also to do it simply. For he believes that one does not need to have much in order to be successful, but that with sufficient inner conviction one can overcome obstacles and achieve anything. Thus it is not surprising that in the course of his career as an Amway business partner, Max himself always believed in his visions and looked ahead. Perhaps that is the true secret of his success, namely, that he always sets a good example to his business partners, with his powers of persuasion and zest for action – a real visionary. Even today, as Founders Crown Ambassador 50, he has not forgotten his roots. In addition to managing his Diamonds, he has retained many tasks from his early days as a new EDC-Diamond in Russia. Today, he even still serves some of his oldest customers himself.

Max Schwarz started his Amway business together with his wife Marianne in November 1977. With much optimism, single mindedness and discipline they qualified as Crown Ambassador in 1982, and in 1996 they reached the peak of their joint career with the Founders Distinguished Award. Shortly afterwards, in 1997, Marianne Schwarz died of leukaemia, a great loss not only for Max Schwarz, but also for all business partners and Amway staff. But despite this terrible blow, Max Schwarz continued to shoulder responsibilty for his own business and his international partners.

Max Schwarz achieved many qualifications all over Europe, i.e. he is Founders Crown Ambassador in one country, Crown in another two countries, Double Diamond in three countries, EDC-Diamond and Diamond in seven countries. In order to keep an eye on every aspect of this big organization, Max Schwarz has to travel a lot. But he is all the more grateful when he can spend a weekend at home in Langenmosen with his partner, Mona May, and his two younger children, Maximilian (3) and Marilena (2 months). His goal is to reduce the amount of time spent travelling in future and to organize several small events in the neighbouring town of Winkelhausen, or even in his own house.

In 2001, his daughter Anja took over the business in Austria, while his son Andreas, a keen horseman like his father, looks after the stud farm. In 2003, Max Schwarz also founded his ”Max Club”, especially for the purpose of training and motivating the leaders on their way to the diamond qualification.

Now one might ask what goals a man like Max Schwarz could still have, or what holidays or awards could still give him pleasure. Although Max Schwarz still talks enthusiastically about his trip to Peter Island and is looking forward to going there again, his wishes are very modest, such as a tour of Iceland or the Faroe Islands.

Max Schwarz is very proud of all his leaders, Diamonds and Crown Ambassadors. His intention is to train and support his national and international business partners to achieve higher qualifications for a long time.
