K Chittilappilly Foundation has been organising a Leadership Development Programme titled ‘Vijayee Bhava’ from 2013-2014 onwards, for young entrepreneurs
who are already in business and are eager to take their business to the next level, in
association with Varma & Varma Chartered Accountants. The primary objective of
the initiative is Entrepreneurship Development, with the view to empower young
entrepreneurs and mentor them to become successful and ethical business leaders.
So far, 20 programmes have been conducted covering more than 700 young
entrepreneurs from all over Kerala.
One of the notable features of this programme is that each VB-ian becomes an
Alumni member of the Vijayee Bhava Alumni. The Alumni holds regular meetings
periodically to update about the new trends in the business world and to motivate its
members. Other successful business personnel as well as industry experts are
brought in to such meeting to share their success stories and tips. The members
form a strong networking unity, helping each other to grow in their respective areas
of business.
When Shri.Kochouseph Chittilappilly invited me for a discussion during mid 2013 0, about an Entrepreneurship Program, I was sure this is going to change the lives of many young Entrepreneurs. When Winner In You Training & Coaching Services and Varma & Varma joined hands with KCF, like the name of the program "Vijayee Bhava" (VB), it was a perfect partnership towards breeding a new Entrepreneurship Culture in Kerala. With 30 plus participants we started the 1st batch during Nov 2013 in Kochi. The 1st batch was started as an evening class spread over 8 weeks covering various topics like Entrepreneurship, Marketing, People Management, Financial Planning, Taxation, Innovation etc for Entrepreneurs from Ernakulam District. After the success of 1st batch it was decided to change the format to 4 days making it open to all Entrepreneurs in Kerala. Rest is history, with 10 Batches, VB has already trained more than 330 Entrepreneurs in Kerala. The success mantra's for Entrepreneurship is no more a secret.
The vision of Shri.Kochouseph to have more successful Entrepreneurs from Kerala will happen through this young and dynamic Entrepreneurs. The success of the program is its simplicity. No rocket science is taught here.kcf No jargon's, No Big talks, its just the winning tips from Successful Entrepreneurs. The participants get opportunity to interact with all leading Entrepreneurs including Shri.Kochouseph, Smt.Sheela Kochouseph and learn their success secrets. The 4 days program is filled with interactions with speakers, discussions, activities, role plays, management games etc. KCF make the program affordable to every participants by just charging a nominal fee to cover the The beauty of the program is its continuity in learning. The Vijayee Bhava Alumni (VBA) is a vibrant group of 300 plus young and active members who meets every month exchanging ideas, helping each other and ensuring the continuity of Vijayee Bhava. We come across several successful Entrepreneurs in this part of the world, but we seldom meet Entrepreneurs who takes the pain to spend money, time & energy to make more successful Entrepreneurs. Salute to this great visionary - Kochuseph Chittilappilly. Vijayee Bhava is destined to become one of the largest forums of successful Entrepreneurs in Kerala and I am glad that I could also be a part of this great venture by anchoring the training programs.
Any new enterprising first generation entrepreneur face many challenges and obstacles in their initial years of entrepreneurship. Many succumb to the consequent despair and few survive through perseverance of their dream adopting innovative ideas.
Mr. Kochouseph has himself faced many insurmountable challenges in his initial years but has successfully overcome all those obstacles to achieve his dream and vision. In his growth trajectory he has benefitted from training sessions conducted by various Management professionals.
