Our Coxswain

He was born in Chakrajapur, one of Rajshahi Zilla's rural villages. To be honest, he had to thrive his existence in absence of any basic amenities, such as no electricity during the day or night, and no appropriate road access between home and school. These conditions in his hamlet have not changed despite its isolation and geographic disadvantages. Furthermore, the people are concerned about their families every year because this community, particularly the CHAR areas, is frequently flooded.

We are talking about none other than the very talented, phenomenal, wunderkind, Managing Director, and coxswain of GSCS International Ltd., Mr. Abdul Mottaleb.

Coming from the most destitute and underprivileged societal background of a third-world country like Bangladesh, he has shown the world a paradigm of self-sufficiency through his every step.

Starting from a very scratch, he has built GSCS International Ltd., a well-reputed and sprouting Auditing and Certification Body rounding the world.

In his words “Today GSCS works to add up with 12 Sustainable Development Goals directly and all of them indirectly through their schemes. Sustainability is the key to livelihood in today’s world and GSCS believes that with quality services of sustainability standards, we can make a difference in sustainability movement.”
