A TRANSFORMATIVE IMPACT

As rapidly evolving global dynamics continue to make things challenging for modern entrepreneurs, Entrepreneurs’ Organization (EO), the world’s largest peer to peer network is helping them turn the tides of uncertainty and transform the world around us.

 

 

Entrepreneurs have played a crucial role in Bangladesh’s journey from being a test case of development to one of the fastest-growing economies in the world. From the very onset, entrepreneurs acted as the wheels of economic progress by creating new products and services. The single largest export earner of Bangladesh’s economy, the readymade garment (RMG) sector, which contributes 83% (2020, Statista) of our total exports, was initially established by a handful of visionary entrepreneurs dedicated to creating opportunities for the people of this country. Over the decades, entrepreneurs have played an essential role in paving the avenues that facilitated development, employment and investment. As we move further into the new decade with our heads held high as a fast developing nation with enormous potential, the current generation of hard-working, talented and insightful entrepreneurs are working relentlessly to facilitate Bangladesh’s growth through rapidly evolving global dynamics.
Speaking of shifting circumstances, the continually evolving global geopolitical contexts and rapid pace of technological innovation have made any entrepreneurial journey a challenging endeavour. With rapid digitisation, markets across the world feel the wrath of every unfortunate incident taking place in any part of the world, and entrepreneurs have to steer their businesses accordingly. Whether it’s a pandemic or the threat of a nuclear war, modern entrepreneurs have to be wary of the tide of uncertainties in a sea of opportunities. They need to be part of an environment that facilitates entrepreneurial growth and personal development. Consequently, Bangladesh’s entrepreneurs are increasingly leaning toward the world’s largest peer to peer network, EO.

WHAT IS EO?
EO is the world’s largest and most prominent peer-to-peer network exclusively for entrepreneurs – it helps transform the lives of those who transform the world. Since 1987, EO has been assisting entrepreneurs to achieve transformational growth. Its member network is committed to learning and helping each other thrive in their respective industries. EO network provides access to the world’s leading experts, enabling the members to grow beyond their limits. Perhaps, the fact that sets EO apart is its awareness of the impediments that modern entrepreneurs face. The network is designed to help them (entrepreneurs) overcome the hurdles through knowledge-sharing and collaboration. Currently, EO members employ over four million people worldwide, and the network continues to thrive and grow.

YOUR SPACE TO THRIVE
EO has created a space where like-minded leaders get to know and connect with each other. EO creates a space where members can have real conversations and learn from one another by sharing their experiences, successes and failures. It provides the infrastructure and support for the members to grow together. EO aspires to help their members achieve exponential growth in their professional as well as their personal lives. For some, it may be delivering a measurable shift in business performance, while for others, it may be a personal transformation. The important thing is that the impact is real and makes a big difference.
EO members, trainers and board members have vast access to entrepreneurs that make up the organisation’s global network. Each member receives updates that reach thousands of EO members globally.

The current members of EO Bangladesh were very candid about their transformative journey with the organisation. Here are a few excerpts:

 

 

My objective through Entrepreneurs’ Organisation was to create a platform for young entrepreneurs who can learn from peers, from global best practices, who remain open to unlearn, relearn, and be coachable. Join the world’s most influential group for leading entrepreneurs, and be part of a transformational business community that inspires one to grow.

 

 

 

 

My primary goal when joining EO was to make life-enhancing connections with these people and help each other succeed. In retrospect, I have realised that we have access to the world’s top experts to help us grow beyond our limits and make breakthroughs to redefine and realise our goals in life and business. But the best reward is that, through trust and respect, we have created a safe space for like-minded individuals to get the best help possible.

 

 

 

 

I joined EO to explore and look for a more significant impact that only a trusted peer group can provide. The availability and access to a vast array of customised benefits and peer to peer learning is helping me grow my business and become a better leader, a better version of myself and a better entrepreneur. The most rewarding aspect of being a part of EO is perhaps sharing and learning from peer groups from their experiences and implementing them in my own business.

 

 

 

EO Network enabled me to boost my success and paved the way for a seamless experience. I believe EO will continue to help me flourish my business by providing access to exclusive resources, exclusive events, digital content, mentors and community support. Also, it will play an essential role in enhancing my leadership, empathy, and resource management abilities while learning about entrepreneurship, which will notice tangible economic benefits from this exposure.

 

 

 

 

 

One of the unique outcomes of entrepreneurship is freedom. To be a successful entrepreneur, you need to be disciplined, innovative and visionary. This trait gives you freedom and makes you the master of your destiny and reap the rewards of your endeavours.

 

 

 

 

 

I joined EO at the end of 2016 and have held various board positions as Chair and Co-chair. The past six years have been enriching for both my entrepreneurial and personal journey. It has allowed a stream of exchanges in ideas and experiences that have helped my business organisation prosper. Moreover, I have had access to peers in various sectors both domestically and internationally. The vast network of EO members has often facilitated and assisted me in my requests related to my professional and personal matters.

 

 

 

 

EO began to transform my entrepreneurial journey as I started being forum trained with Anish Patel and two other forum mates. The peer to peer learning helped me enhance my capabilities as I got to apply them in my work. EO not only transforms your entrepreneurial journey but allows you to grow as an individual.
