From the President
Dear EO Melbourne,
The end of the financial year is nearly upon us, and I can't help but be proud of all of the achievements of our EO Melbourne Chapter members. Every year at this time, I reflect on how the financial year has gone, what accomplishments I have achieved, what worked well and what I could have done better. I have also reflected on our EO Chapter.
Reading over some of the stories posted by our own in-house EO Communications team with guidance from our Comms Chair Damian Blumenkranc, I feel motivated and better prepared for the year ahead. After reading stories of how the EO Mentorship Program has impacted our members, I encourage you all to consider participating in the program as part of your EO journey. I have heard firsthand the powerful impact it has had. Also, I have enjoyed reading other EO member stories around topics, such as how our members have used cryptocurrency in innovative ways in their business, how members have motivated their employees through challenging times and how members started their business. Now is the best opportunity to take time out to reflect on the past financial year so you can move forward with the insights needed to achieve your future goals.
The EO Melbourne Board has just come back from a Regional leadership conference held over 3 days in Hobart, focused on preparing your Board for the next 12 months of delivering memorable experiences on your entrepreneurial journey. The event created opportunities to learn and grow on our path to leadership, and I highly encourage current members to consider a role on the board in future years. The value we all received will help prepare us for both our own company and EO Chapter leadership ship roles. The Board is busy preparing for our Annual Strategic Planning and look forward to presenting our way forward next month.
Finally, I look forward to seeing you all at our End of Financial Year Gala Dinner to introduce the theme for next year. We have an exciting calendar ahead, and we are busy filling up the calendar with a variety of events to help our members 10x the achievement of their goals.
Warmest regards,
Socrates Capouleas, Finance Chair and Forum Chair, 2020/2021
President 2021/2022
