YPO (formerly Young Presidents' Organization) is a US-based organization of chief executives with more than 36,000 members in more than 142 countries.

History

YPO was founded in 1950 in Rochester, New York, by manufacturer Ray Hickok, who was 27 years old when he became the head of his family's Rochester-based Hickok Belt, a 300-employee company.[2]

The first meeting was held in 1950 at the Waldorf Astoria New York and was attended by Robert Wood Johnson III (Johnson & Johnson).[3] Hickok and a small group of young presidents in the area began meeting regularly to share and learn from each other. According to the organization, its founding principle is that of education and idea exchange among peers.[4]

  • The first non-U.S. chapter was created in 1956 in Ontario, Canada.
  • The first YPO University was held in Miami Beach, Florida.
  • YPO merged with its graduate organization, World Presidents Organization (WPO), in 2007.
  • The YPO Global Pulse survey launched in 2009, and is a quarterly economic confidence index that shares business insights from CEOs.[5][6]
  • In 2010, Jill Belconis became the first woman elected to serve as YPO-WPO international chairman.[7]
  • YPO formed an editorial partnership with CNBC in 2012.[8]
  • Elizabeth Zucker is the 2019-2020 chairman of the YPO Board of Directors.[9]
  • In March 2023 YPO launched a new educational platform for its members called "YPO Leadership Development Toolkit"[10]

Demographics

As of 2024, there are more than 450 chapters worldwide and more than 36,000 members.[11][12]

  • 24% of new members are now women from 13% in 2012

Membership requirements

To qualify for membership, a person must have become, before age 45, the president or chairman and chief executive officer of a corporation of significance with a minimum revenue of $15,000,000 for a sales, service, manufacturing company.

The company must have 50 full time employees or 15 + employees with a minimum $2,500,000 USD Annual Employee Compensation. [13] The financial criteria differ for service companies and banks.[3] Candidates must be typically recommended by two members of a local chapter and approved by a membership committee of each local chapter.[3] Baseline entry and yearly membership fees are around $10,000 though these can be significantly higher depending on the chapter and other activities.[citation needed]
