Welcome to the BNI San Diego Podcast! Our Guest this week is my long-time friend and colleague, Kevin Barber. Kevin is a 20-year ED in Germany South-West with 50 Chapters and over 1400 members, and his region has generated $1.2 billion in closed business. After 24 years working as a CPA in the audit industry and the services sector, he claims to have had “no idea” what networking was when he started his BNI career.  

Kevin has attended BNI meetings in 34 countries to establish a strong international network for his BNI customers, and in 2011, he initiated the project “BNI Connect-5”, in which he attended 5 BNI meetings on 5 continents in 5 working days! He has presented at numerous BNI Global Directors Conferences on “Connecting the World” and is regularly invited to speak internationally about “Changing the Way the World Does Business”. He is proud to be Chairman of the BNI Foundation Worldwide and is the founder of the BNI Foundation in Germany/Austria.  

Kevin is probably the only BNI director who has ever been inside the Big Brother House–twice!  

In this episode, we explore how the BNI Foundation is not only making a positive impact on communities but is also good for your business. Join us as we discuss how getting involved with the BNI Foundation’s initiatives can strengthen your connections, enhance your reputation, and open new opportunities for growth. We’ll share how supporting educational programs, and charitable causes can help build trust, expand your network, and create lasting goodwill for your business. Tune in to learn how giving back through the BNI Foundation can fuel both your business success and your personal fulfillment!
