In this episode Jean chats with Kapil Khanna to chat about his journey from India to Ireland and how all contributed to the All Ireland Business Foundation

Originally from Delhi in India, fate brought me to Ireland in 2009 (I followed my heart!) where I’m now raising my family & making a positive impact for 100's of Irish businesses.  Immigrating to a country in the depths of a recession was not an easy start for anyone's career. The only person I knew at that time was my wife.  My past work exp with fortune 500 MNC's, my values (& a bit of luck) helped me to re-start my career in Ireland.  Quick fact: My first position in Ireland was an unpaid internship as a management consultant at Galway (I commuted daily from Dub-Gal!).  Those initial struggles & failures given me a different perspective of business/life & made me the person I am today.  Over the last 12 years, I devoted myself to the study of business and entrepreneurship.   Fast forward to 2020, I am fortunate to be able to mentor & support over 400 Irish businesses in gaining strategic clarity & moving their business forward.  My belief is that its important to leave a legacy and build something that is greater than oneself.  In 2013, I left my job and started my entrepreneurial journey with Elaine Carroll. We started with a modest 250 delegates at the inaugural All-Ireland Business Summit at Croke Park in 2014. Fast forward to 2019, we welcomed more than 900 business leaders!  Under the guidance of our board, we officially launched The All-Ireland Business Foundation (AIBF). The AIBF is an independent national accreditation body that identifies, acknowledges and supports the country’s most ambitious and visionary business leaders.  As the awarding body for Business All-Star Accreditation Quality Mark🏅, it identifies and recognises best-in-class Irish businesses that deserve recognition for their trust and customer-centricity. Check out ☆ www.businessallstars.ie  Since 2014, over 3,000 companies have participated in our initiatives. The Foundation also hosts the annual All-Ireland Summit and quarterly forums while promoting peer-learning and collaboration among it’s accredited companies.  With over 400 accredited companies in the TRIBE- we are on a mission of empowering entrepreneurs to realise their ambitions and seize the opportunities Ireland offers.

In this episode Jean chats with @colm O'Brien to chat about starting out Networking and why you need to start sooner more so then later

Colm O'Brien Motivation is evolving ever since I penned Feeding Johnny - How to Build a Business Despite the Road Blocks, which was published and went to #5 on the paperback best seller non-fiction list in early 2015.

One year later, in March 2016, we held our first event entitled "Create the Life You Really Want"​ aimed at waking people up from accepting the hand that life had dealt them and empowering them to at least recognize that they are authors of their own life stories and as such could determine any direction they chose from here on. The feedback was tremendous. Lives, including my own, were impacted positively.
