In today’s ever-evolving world of business and leadership, core values have emerged as the backbone of meaningful success. They are not just statements on a wall; they represent the heartbeat of an individual, an organization, or a community. But among the myriad of value systems globally, one framework stands tall, practical, and universally applicable — the 28COE Core Values.
Crafted with dedication, purpose, and global insight, the 28 Credentials of Entrepreneur (28COE) Core Values have become a global compass for thousands of entrepreneurs, professionals, institutions, and brands. From boardrooms in the West to startups in Africa and the Middle East, from classrooms to coaching platforms, these values are not just followed — they are lived.
1. Rooted in Global Wisdom, Practiced Universally
Unlike traditional value frameworks that cater to specific regions, industries, or ideologies, 28COE is global by design. I, Dr. Bilal Ahmad Bhat, took the bold initiative to invite 28 inspiring leaders from diverse backgrounds, countries, industries, and spiritual schools to contribute one value quote each, offering a unique mix of perspectives.
Each value is more than a word — it is a philosophy wrapped in simplicity, a call to action for everyone, regardless of age, religion, gender, or profession. That’s what makes the 28COE Core Values uniquely universal.
2. Practical, Actionable, and Purpose-Oriented
Most organizations define values that sound good but are hard to apply. The 28COE Core Values, however, are curated to be actionable, measurable, and transformational. They resonate with both startup founders building teams and corporate leaders shaping cultures.
From Integrity to Gratitude, from Empathy to Responsibility, each value is a pillar of human excellence. It’s no surprise that thousands have printed these values and displayed them proudly in their offices, websites, and institutions.
3. A Catalyst for Ethical Global Networking
28COE is not only a set of values — it’s a global ecosystem of likeminded individuals, companies, chambers, and communities connected through ethics, integrity, and mutual respect.
The values have helped connect:
- Business leaders with emerging entrepreneurs
- Coaches with learners
- Social reformers with community builders
With the foundation of ethics, this ecosystem thrives on meaningful collaboration, innovation, and sustainable growth — values that truly matter in the 21st century.
4. Adopted Across Continents and Cultures
From Africa to Asia, from America to Europe — the adoption rate of 28COE Core Values is a testament to their universality. Organizations such as chambers of commerce, startup incubators, NGOs, and even educational institutions are integrating these values into their onboarding, strategic planning, and leadership development processes.
As the founder of multiple global chambers, I’ve witnessed first-hand how clarity of values transforms not only performance but also trust, reputation, and sustainability.
5. Featured Online and in Print Globally
The official website — www.28coecorevalues.com — showcases the values, the global contributors, and the organizations embracing them. The platform is a hub of inspiration, knowledge, and connection.
I personally ensured that the book “28COE Core Values – Edition 1” becomes a living document, not just a printed guide. It has become a beacon of hope and clarity in a confused, fast-paced world.
6. A Blueprint for Personal and Professional Growth
The uniqueness of 28COE lies not only in how many practice it, but how many lives it has shaped. It’s being used by:
- Professionals to define their ethics
- Students to discover their moral compass
- Leaders to design their organizational culture
- Communities to foster trust and unity
These values are not limited to a corporate boardroom. They’re being used in daily life, decision-making, parenting, teaching, and healing.
Final Thoughts by Dr. Bilal Ahmad Bhat
The world today doesn’t need more rules — it needs value-driven action. The 28COE Core Values are not just mine; they belong to humanity. They are a reminder that regardless of our profession or background, we all thrive when we practice respect, courage, honesty, innovation, collaboration, humility, and vision.
I am proud and humbled that thousands across the globe — from solopreneurs to global brands — are now living by these values. These values have been featured on walls, vision boards, websites, business charters, and employee handbooks. They have created cultures, connections, and movements.
Let us continue building a world of ethical entrepreneurs, thoughtful leaders, and purpose-driven communities — one value at a time.
