EPIGNOSIS: The Power of Learning and Spirituality in Entrepreneurship

"Kindness is not a sign of weak leadership. It’s a strength."

In this episode of The Outliers Podcast, Nikhil Arora, the leader of Epignosis—a Greek scaleup transforming workplace training worldwide—shares his inspiring journey. After key roles at GoDaddy and WeWork, Nikhil has helped Epignosis expand its reach to 22 million learners across 158 countries, gaining the trust of global giants like Google and the United Nations.

Nikhil’s story is defined by hard work and an adventurous spirit. His career has spanned 11 countries, where he has pushed himself to explore different industries and embrace new challenges, knowing that growth happens when you step outside your comfort zone. Starting in New York with just $200, he worked four jobs to fund his education. What motivates him is the belief that there’s no greater impact than fostering growth—both in learners and teachers alike—while building something purposeful that can change the world, not just chasing profit.

Guided by empathy and a customer-focused mindset, Nikhil is leading Epignosis’ vision to shape the future of global workplace learning. As the company adapts to AI and remote learning, he remains committed to fostering environments where people and businesses can thrive.
