Global Entrepreneur Xchange (GEX) is an independent and private coalition of entrepreneurs. It was created by entrepreneurs for entrepreneurs.

Most entrepreneurs and business leaders begin their

journey without the right skill set, mind set or guidance

- this is probably why more than 85% of the businesses

fail in less than 18 months. This is a staggering statistic.

It is also avoidable and needless.

GEX seeks to address this massive challenge faced by

CEOs and business leaders by providing fresh ideas,

insights, content, tools, guidance and mentorship with

a view to reducing failure rate, maximising success rate

and enhancing skill sets so that businesses are able to

unlock their full potential and become future ready.

GEX seeks to be a go-to global platform, portal and

partner that empowers, equips and educates CEOs,

business leaders and entrepreneurs through the creation,

curation and delivery of actionable and high quality

knowledge via:

Most businesses and brands need a clear and compelling direction.

A business without direction is like a car without a GPS.

The primary goal of Strategy development is to enable a business to

build a competitive advantage so that it can survive and win in a

complex and uncertain business environment. This is done by clearly

defining business priorities so that the entire resources and people of

a business get singularly focused in one direction.

Most businesses struggle due to either lack of strategy or poor strategy.

Strategy Development is the foundation of business success. This is why

GEX gives tremendous importance to Strategy Development.

Most businesses do not focus on brand building or choose to build

brands when it is too late. In todays' world, if you are not a brand,

you are a commodity, and you end up fighting purely on price.

This makes the products and services of any business less valuable.

The purpose of brand positioning is to create a strong and competitive

differentiation in the market place. Most businesses, especially Small

and Medium Enterprises experience low margins and weak customer

preference. This is mostly caused by the lack of a clear and competitive

Brand Positioning. Most businesses can lift their bottom line and

customer preference when they invest in positioning their brands.

Most businesses do not have a robust business model or road map.

This is why they fail or become irrelevant. A business model is a system

that enables a firm to capture value from and deliver value to its

customers. When a business is unclear about its business model or

uses an outdated business model, it ends up facing an existential crises.

Similarly - A business road map is very crucial for any business because

it outlines how a business seeks to achieve its goals and what resources

are going to be required. A business road map makes a strategy real and

tangible.

At GEX, we do not just stop with Strategy Development, but we work with

our clients to also develop a robust and viable business model and road

map as well.

Brand and Corporate Identity development are very important as they

define how a business or brand is perceived. This involves developing or

refreshing logos and identities that align with the strategic direction of

a business or brand or Govt entity. An identity can differentiate a business

through its products, services, environment and people.

The culture of a business is a crucial source of competitive advantage,

differentiation and innovation. GEX believes that a business culture

needs to be integrated with a powerful competency model to make it

tangible and objective.

GEX uses a three step strategy called - Know it ; Own it and Live it

to enable businesses to create the building blocks of a robust culture.

The purpose of building a strong business culture is to enable all the

employees of a firm to be aligned around the values and strategic

direction of the firm.

Performance and Talent Management is yet another area GEX focuses

on to enables businesses to diagnose, manage and raise the quality of

its people and business effectiveness. GEX incorporates workforce

planning, organisation design, talent pulsing and analytics in developing

performance and talent management strategies for its clients.

evolving consumer experiences, adopting and enhancing various digital

and processes.

GEX empowers business to begin and adopt digitisation of their

operations so that they transform into a highly adaptive, scalable and

globalised business.

MasterClasses

MasterClasses

GEX has developed, refined and customised

Master Classes for entrepreneurs & business leaders.

These programmes are focused on enhancing their

Strategic, Innovation and Leadership skill sets so that

they are able to empower their businesses and teams

to become competitive and differentiated.

GEX offers 3 signature

master classes:

What I enjoyed most were the case studies & insights that Karthik shared not from textbooks but from his vast experience with international corporations and governments. It was a great inspiration to me.

It is also great learning for me to know not only strategies of successful corporations but also mistakes they made and how they cascaded their strategy to their corporation.

This masterclass is extremely powerful for CEOs with organisation more than few hundred staff.

Chiau Haw ChoonGroup CEO of Chin Hin Group Berhad

MasterClasses

Yeo Bee YinFormer Minister of Energy, Technology, Science, Climate Change and Environment Malaysia

It is very important not only for business or politics, anybody who seriously wants to do something must have a Strategy.

The biggest gain I get is in order to be a great person or a great organisation, the first thing you need to do is to ask the Big Question.

MasterClasses

What I appreciate the most is to hear the knowledge & experiences shared in the masterclass and more importantly to learn all the strategic tools & see how it is being implemented through the excellent real case studies.

Rizal Shah AmatCEO of 360 Studio Worldwide

Dato’ Phum Ang KiaCo-founder of Advancecon Group

What I enjoyed most is the opportunity to be able to meet with CEOs from different industries. It helped me to understand that in an ever changing environment, you require a robust strategy.

The most valuable lesson I learnt is that we can’t fight the economy, our strategy needs to take economy into serious consideration. I also like the positioning map, to know how to position our company in the market.

I would recommend this programme to all CEOs because it can inspire them to have a clear strategy, positioning and to bring their company to the next level.

Conferences

Conferences

Global Entrepreneur Xchange (GEX) is proud to present it’s

signature conference platform – Face2Face with Innovators,

a forum that enables entrepreneurs and CEOs in Southeast

Asia to come up close and personal with some of the world’s

most renowned, iconic and game changing innovators,

entrepreneurs, CEOs and management thinkers.

The goal of Face2Face with Innovators is to inspire, equip,

empower and educate entrepreneurs and CEOs with the

latest thinking, methodologies, strategies, tools and insights

from the world’s best of class leaders and experts.

This platform seeks to provide a transformative learning

experience that will enable entrepreneurs and CEOs to raise

their standards, enhance their perspectives so that they are

able to take their businesses to the next level.

One of the things that stood out in the Face2Face with Innovators to me was the level of the energy of the audience, and that the people were really with us every moment not only during the actual presentation but before and after. So, I would conclude that there is a thirst for this kind of information here among the entrepreneurial community in Malaysia.

Of course, there are lots of other resources available, books, online resources, Ted Talks & so on. But the thing that is unique here is the ability for Malaysian entrepreneurs to learn from Malaysian entrepreneurs. There is so much in the community around the Global Entrepreneur Xchange that you can get practical knowledge from your peers as well as from international experts that come to visit.

I think it's really important for entrepreneurial companies, which really come in all sizes, to keep the rate of learning very high. The thing that I think is exciting about the Global Entrepreneur Xchange is the ability to help entrepreneurial companies here in Malaysia learn at an accelerated pace, because that's how they're going to keep up with and keep ahead of the competition.

Tom KelleyA Partner of IDEOWorld’s Renowed Expert on Innovation & Design

Successful entrepreneurs are not about being successful. It’s about going through the journey where you will see a lot of challenges and even failures, but still having the ability to manage those failures which will tell you that you are a successful entrepreneur.

When you are an entrepreneur, you are indeed lonely. You might cry at night or even during the day but remember there will always be someone who will help you, and GEX can help perhaps. As Karthik said, 20% of start-ups do fail and Karthik knows the reason why they fail. I’m glad that GEX created a platform to increase the success rate of entrepreneurship development.

I believe we have met the objective, and hopefully we can have more programmes and conferences facilitated by GEX.

All the best to the entrepreneurs, I hope you will interact more with GEX to learn what are the programmes that GEX will facilitate in the future.

I hope to see you guys again in another Face2Face with Innovators.
