The people who keep me sane! Forum 1 of EO Beijing                   Back in 2007 Richard Robinson and I travelled to Dubai and returned as the founder members of the Beijing Chapter of the Entrepreneurs Organization. I was President for the next 2 years managing to hand over to Mirko Wormuth, who was a brilliant President and is still here in Forum 1 with me. EO has been a source of great strength and inspiration to me while in China. It was at Forum 1 that I first mooted the idea of Morgan. Last week we had the news that for the first time in EO’s history—27 years of growth and greatness— EO has the 10,000-member mark! In Beijing we now have 45 members. Some of my friends in Singapore have joined EO, and during training by Verne Harnish in Holland last week were some British entrepreneurs I have introduced in the hope that they find EO as inspirational as I have. That’s a tremendous accomplishment, and one that speaks volumes regarding the impact of EO and the growing reach of our influence, as well as the efforts of our member leaders and staff. Earning the honor of being our 10,000 ^th member is  Akith Patel, the latest addition to one of our newest chapters— EO East Africa! Akith is the director of Propack Kenya Limited, a food products company located in Nairobi. Closer to home - thank you to my Forum 1 peers, and the peers in the other Forum’s I have been blessed to share time with.
