Some entrepreneurs build companies. Others build communities.

Such a great post about the legendary Paul Signorelli OAM by a fellow #insider @jen Gaudet  who I had the privilege to meet at #jt foxx event at the Sydney Opera House .

Some entrepreneurs build companies.

Others build communities.

The rare ones, like Paul do both so seamlessly you can’t see the dividing line.

Paul is the force behind some of Sydney’s top venues (including one in  the Sydney Opera House) and the Biaggio Signorelli Foundation, which has raised over $15 million for mesothelioma research.

Here are 4 of Paul’s gems 

1. Building “giving back” as part of your business DNA creates a meaningful purpose for your entire group - it can be the glue that aligns your business - which is the fuel for growth 

2. It’s ok to diversify into different businesses as long as your Vision, Your Purpose and your Values are aligned . 

Paul’s ventures span hospitality, events, and philanthropy, but they’re tied together by values. 

“Growth without alignment is just chaos with a logo.” 

Reminds me of this saying by my mentor Allen Pathmarajah 

“Vision without Action Is hallucination 

Action without vision is Choas

But 

Vision with Action is the key to Growth”

3. Turn pain into power.

He transformed personal loss into a movement that saves lives. Your hardest story might be your greatest contribution.

4. Lead locally, not just loudly.

Profit matters, but credibility and contribution matter more. Build something your community claims as its own.

If your business only builds balance sheets and not a legacy, you’re playing small.

Which makes me think Why am I excited about Referron? 

It’s helping build  community through connection collaboration and contribution …. And a little thing such as a warm introduction can create an enormous positive impact to someone in your network 

Looking forward to connect with these humans at JT Foxx - MegaSuccess in November in LA .

Feel free to connect with me on Referron :) Cheers, Ivan https://rfrn.link/ivank www.referron.com  

Building your Magnetic Personal Brand

People talk about alignment and flow ? 

What is it ? And how do you achieve that state ?

Imagine  it's September 2035.

When you look back at the last 10 years of life,

Where do you see yourself personally?

Where do you see your business ?

Do you see Joy ? 

A sense of achievement ?

Have you achieved your BHaG goal ? (Big hairy audacious goal ;)) 

Have you achieved your vision - and does it align with your  mission ;)

Have you achieved your purpose? 

Have you documented your purpose ?

Is it something you can't stop talking about?

Your purpose is the overarching purpose behind why you’re here (or is it ? )

If what you do and what you have done has been achieving the above - that’s alignment !!

Y𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 or Job  is a 𝐦𝐨𝐝𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 and an important vehicle for expressing your  purpose. 

It’s a way For getting paid to be YOU. For shining your light in a way that magnetises the right people.

How do you do this? 

How do you build a magnetic personal brand and business that is in synch with your purpose? 

 to build  your personal brand that aligns with your vision, purpose, and mission you need to know what this is !!
