EO Istanbul 2012

I gave a keynote presentation this afternoon to around 800 entrepreneurs from around the world that are members of the Entrepreneurs Organization. It was part of their EO Istanbul University taking place in Istanbul, Turkey. The talk was titled EO 360 degrees - A spiritual perspective. EO 360 degrees is their theme for this year which focuses of 4 aspects of an entrepreneurs life - "myself", "my family", "my business" and "my community". I shared spiritual insights and tools on each of these areas in my 75 minute presentation.
