WHAT IS FORUM?

YOUR PERSONAL BOARD OF DIRECTORS

What would you give for a personal board of advisers or for the opportunity to connect with a small group of fellow business owners who can offer direction based on their own experiences? This invaluable access is available through Forum, a unique member-driven experience offered by EO that brings together a group of entrepreneurs for peer-to-peer learning and support. Participants engage in monthly meetings with special protocols that foster a trusting environment, allowing them to safely explore both business and personal growth challenges.


WHAT HAPPENS AT FORUM MEETINGS?


We can share 95 percent of our lives with anyone. During Forum meetings, members discuss the remaining 5 percent – the triumphs and struggles of life as an entrepreneur. Moderator-trained EO members, not paid facilitators, guide the sessions, which focus on confidentiality, personal responsibility, and sharing lessons learned. Members don’t offer advice; instead, they share from their own experiences, allowing you to draw your own conclusions about the best way to move forward.


MEETING ROOM FACILITIES AND VENUES


Strategic Alliance Partners (SAP) provide venues and meeting rooms to EO Morocco Members for Forum meetings and learning events. Please refer to this page for the list of SAP facilities available.

ASIA BRIDGE FORUMS

Members keen to pursue an Asian business focus might wish to consider participating in the Asia Bridge Forums. The Asia Bridge Forum (ABF) started in 2006 with 16 members from the South-East Asia chapters (and one from Japan). Most of these members had been involved in local Forum for many years, and they sought to leverage our network and have Forum with members from other chapters in our region. They now have 80 members in seven Forums, with members from the Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, Japan, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Korea, New Delhi, Dallas and, most recently, Adelaide.

The Asia Bridge Forums meet three times a year. One of these meetings is a mini-university called ABC, or Asia Bridge Campus. The venue for each meeting changes each time so that part of the experience is the location. In the past, there have been Forum in ancient Japanese temples, on private islands, on cricket fields, on yachts and even in the temples of Angkor Wat.

WHY JOIN AN ASIA BRIDGE FORUM?

  • Get perspectives from another culture
  • Seek help in expanding to another country
  • Experience a city through a local's eyes
  • Find connections in another chapter

EXPENSE

Aside from travel to the venue and accommodation, there is a $1,500 annual fee at the start of the year to cover all three meetings.

EOINJECTED FORUMS


WHAT IS EOINJECTED?

EOinjected is an EO Forum and event program designed to better meet the needs of specific member segments, as well as provide added value. EOinjected is built around input from members, and the results of EO’s annual all-member survey. EO Global recognises that some members want to enhance their peer experience by interacting with those who share specific traits.

Members join EOinjected to:

  • Connect on a deeper level with like-minded members
  • Fulfil needs not always addressed at the chapter level
  • Share experiences with members who really understand their issues and their goals
  • Receive additional accountability and business take-home value

WHO CAN PARTICIPATE IN EOINJECTED?

  • EOInjected Quantum Leap is for members who have, or have had, a business earning US $15 million in annual revenue
  • EOInjected Insignia is for members who have been with EO for more than seven years

EOINJECTED MEETING STRUCTURE

All EOinjected Forums begin with a dinner the night before their meeting. Meetings are held in various locations around Australia. The Forums consist of 8 to 12 members who meet quarterly for an intensive, all-day meeting that merges Forum with a direct focus on business and on you. During the meeting, you will work with tools that enable you to explore the five EOinjected pillars: Strategy, People, Execution, Finance and Me (the individual entrepreneur).

Essentially, half of the meeting consists of traditional Forum presentations that are taken to the next level by utilising best practices and by the targeted group of members in the room. The other half of the meeting consists of moderated discussion working through the content provided in the five EOinjected pillars.

Most EOinjected Forums have monthly calls in addition to their quarterly meetings in order to share updates, plan accordingly for future meetings and hold each other accountable.
