Hakkımda

Hi, I'm a serial entrepreneur & I want to help you succeed!
 
Over the years I've had spectacular business success & even more spectacular failures. I've learnt many business lessons the hard way & I realized that the entrepreneur who works smart is often more successful than the entrepreneur who just works hard.
 
I created http://www.SmartEntrepreneur.Net to help you become one of the world's smart & successful entrepreneurs.
 
Every month the team at http://www.SmartEntrepreneur.Net looks for the best quality information & solutions to help you succeed in your business.
 
Before you go further, please make sure to download our FREEBIE OF THE MONTH!
 
When I Was A Child I Was Greatly Influenced By This Old Parable:
 
There was a Saint who had a vision about what it was like in Hell & Heaven.
 
In Hell he saw a huge table laden with food in the centre. Surrounding the table were starving people who all had very long forks attached to the ends of their arms. They could stab the food, but the forks were too long for them to put the food in their mouths. They were all screaming in frustration as they tried to eat the food that they longed for.
 
In Heaven, the saint saw the exact same table laden with food & people with the long forks at the ends of their arms. However, here the people were all smiling & enjoying the food. What they were doing was stabbing the food & putting it in EACH OTHER's mouths!
 
The moral of the story is that our heaven & hell is right here on earth, how much we want to help others & be helped in return is what makes the difference!
 
What Am I Like?:
 
Dr. Peter Senge (author of 'The Fifth Discipline') once called me a Pragmatic Idealist. I am a serial entrepreneur & love to get involved in enterprises that truly add value to society.
 
According to my Temprament Profile, I am a Rational-Inventor (ENTP). Supposedly we are quite scarce (less than 2% of the general population). Here's an intro quote from Advisor Team's Site about our type:
 
"There aren't many Inventors, but your type has a great impact on people's everyday lives. This is true because of your innovative and entrepreneurial spirit. These traits make certain that you're always eyeing new projects, enterprises, and processes, and looking for better ways to do things."
 
Don't know about the impact I make smile......but I AM always looking for new people & projects to get involved with.
 
Thomas Power (Chairman of Ecademy.com) was kind enough to give me this testimonial:
 
"Bold, direct, charming and straight to the point Akhil has an open mind to new ideas and new approaches. He absorbs information very quickly and can see into the future with reliable insight.
Very few people truly believe in global networking and having a global business network to support your personal and professional endeavours, Akhil is one of these few, and for that I reason I naturally feel comfortable recommending a very smart gentleman indeed. A larger future is coming in Akhil's direction."
 

Who Can I Connect You With?:
 
I have a huge offline network (both in India & around the world). I would be happy to connect you with anyone I know from:
 
1) Alumni of the Kellogg Graduate School of Management. I was in the class of 1994.
 
2) The American Alumni Association. I am the Past President
 
3) The Rotary Club. I am President of The Rotary Club of Bombay Midtown. One of India's oldest & largest Rotary Clubs
 
4) Confederation of Indian Industry. This is India's premier industry association. I am on the Knowledge Industries Committee.
 
5) Priyadarshni Academy. This organization gives awards to international luminaries who have contributed to society. I am on the Awards Committee.
 
6) BNI. I was part of the leadership team of India's first BNI chapter.
 
Am also a member of the Young Entrepreneur's Organization, Indo-American Chamber of Commerce, Indian Merchant's Chamber & Indian Institute of Management Consultants.
 
Other Stuff About Me:
 
I am listed in "Asia's Whos Who - Men & Women of Achievement" & was recently awarded the "Bharat Shiromani Award" for excellence & contribution to society. This award has also been given to Mother Teresa, The Dalai Lama & Sachin Tendulkar among others.
 
I was also selected as 'India's Man of The Year' By The American Biographical Institute
 
I teach a class on Knowledge Management in a local college here in Mumbai
 
I have been profiled in various newspapers & magazines in India including 'Business India' , 'The Times of India', 'The Economic Times' & 'Express Computers'.
 
My family consists of my beautiful wife (Nisha), two lovely daughters (Simran & Shagun) & incontinent Cocker Spaniel (Brandy).
 
Would just like to leave you with a thought: Mahatma Gandhi, Bill Gates & Richard Branson had exactly the same 24 hours every day as you do!
