Changing the Way the World Does Business
I was talking to my wife and some of the members of TLC about the fact that BNI didn't fit the mold of the group because we are not a seminar company doing self-development training. Many of them pointed out that BNI is, in fact, "transforming" the world through our philosophy of Givers Gain. I started thinking about BNI's larger role in helping business people around the world. By the end of the week-long program, the theme for this year—Changing the Way the World Does Business—had materialized in my mind for our organization. How are we changing the world? Here are some of the ways that come to mind:
I believe you may not be able to make a world of difference but you can make a difference in the world. BNI has made a difference in the world. We are truly "Changing the Way the World Does Business." I see these positive contributions almost every day. In the next several issues of SuccessNet™, I'd like YOU to share how you believe BNI has changed your life or your fellow member's lives in some way. Send your message to erin@bni.com. Everyone that sends in a message that I use in a future issue throughout the year will get a set of free downloadable gifts that will help them in BNI. So, tell me - how is BNI "Changing the Way the World Does Business" for YOU? * 135,000 hours is calculated by taking 5,000 Chapters times 3 Leadership Team people times 2 trainings a year by an average of 4.5 hours per training. This number does NOT include Membership Committee Training, Visitor Host Training, Advanced Trainings, and Director Trainings. It is a very conservative number. ** These numbers are preliminary estimates for 2007. Final numbers will be released in February 2008.
