Membership Expectations

Forum and general EO protocol are designed to provide a structured framework that demands commitment. This proven formula has exceeded expectations, benefiting over 100,000 members since the inception of EO. Your commitment is vital not only for your own success in your EO journey but also for the collective success of all EO members.

Before joining, your membership chair will provide a detailed explanation of the minimum commitment expected from you. To help you gauge if EO is the right fit for you, we have prepared a checklist outlining what we anticipate from our members and what you can anticipate from EO. While you have the flexibility to invest varying degrees of time in EO, we recommend evaluating the suggested minimum commitments below.

EO CORE VALUES

Together We Grow

We are committed to each other’s success and well-being—and we unite to celebrate those differences. We may be from different cultures, religions and have different lived experiences, but EO binds us together across cities and continents.

Think big, be bold

We innovate and take risks to make the world a better place for our teams, our families, our communities, and for humankind. We think big, we are bold. We want to make a difference beyond ourselves. We see entrepreneurship as a way to create a better world for all, and we explore new opportunities to make a positive impact with our work.

Thirst for learning

We have an insatiable curiosity. It is through curiosity that we grow and widen our horizons. Learning is about more than a class or a workshop—it is about asking the right questions, trying new things and having curiosity about other members, their life experiences and their perspectives.

Trust & Respect

Each of us is unique and equal. This fundamental to EO. Living this value with an open mind and appreciation for different points of view enables us to create a space where everyone can be their complete, authentic selves.
