BNI is built on a set of guiding principles which form the foundation on which our members interact, conduct themselves and fulfill their goals. Here is a little more about each of Our Core Values and How They Guide Us.
Givers Gain®
Givers Gain is the underlying philosophy of BNI. We exemplify that by giving business to others; you will get business in return
Lifelong Learning
We believe in the continuous improvement of personal and professional skills. BNI provides a variety of opportunities to support lifelong learning.
Traditions + Innovation
Tradition in an organisation tells us where we come from and lays the foundation of who we are, but we must always be looking for ways to innovate.
Positive Attitude
BNI provides an environment that enables you to surround yourself with people who want to help you succeed.
Building Relationships
Networking is more about farming connections with new contacts than hunting for them. People want to do business with people they know and trust. It’s about cultivating those relationships.
Accountability
If you want to have a powerful personal network, you must have accountability. Otherwise, it becomes a social group.
Recognition
It’s important to recognise those who are contributing.
