From the first EO prospect lunch that I attended, members, trainers and board members alike exalted the vast access to entrepreneurs that made up the organization’s global network. And shortly after joining, I received updates that EO had reached 10,000 members worldwide, as well as schedules for upcoming Universities and other global events. At the time, most of this didn’t resonate with me, since I didn’t travel very often. What’s more, Universities looked expensive based on where my business was at the time. So, I wasn’t planning to attend any time soon.

That first prospect lunch was more than three years ago, and my how things have changed! Since then, I’ve taken every opportunity available to maximize my membership and truly experience the global EO community … and I still feel like I’m only scratching the surface.
