gET MORE OuT OF EO

No set path to leadership exists within EO. Most members tend to follow their interests, be they based in Forum, chapter development or a more functional area like a committee. The first step to joining the member leaders of EO and helping to form a particular member experience is to join your chapter board. By serving on the board, even as a co-chair, you will learn what works and doesnt work within your chapter and can apply that knowledge moving forward to the rest of the organization.

Get Started Contact your Chapter account Manager using the information on your Chapter Contact sheet to begin your journey to leadership.
