Chaos, Egos, and No Future

Anonymous employee

CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

The associates, but this is not where the investment is made. Most associates are smart, driven, striving for better, and wanting to make a difference. There are other associates that hold on for dear life as this is all they know.

Cons

The board, the chairman(s), and the champion structure - these create chaos and a playground for egos to compete and destroy one another. The lack of integrity is astonishing. Many members are not real CEOs but overly privileged, spoiled men that still undermine women and anyone that is not a rich, white male, especially in the US. This is a place that fosters misogyny and maniacal behaviors.

Going Downhill Fast

Pros

The members, most of them. are great. They have no idea what it is like to work here.

Cons

Where to start? All support for the management team has been stripped away, the benefits have gone downhill, you will do the job of three people (minimum), no direction, no compass, no leadership or appreciation for anyone's contributions. The management team is there to serve the members in a slave like culture where anything goes and reason and capacity are out the window. Chaos rules. If you like a new set of priorities weekly, then this is the place for you.

Pros

"Regular members" (chapter, network), management team from around the world - chapter managers/directors. Chapter / region / network champions.

Cons

Dysfunctional board. The international board is NOT elected by members. They are chosen thanks to political moves. The board changes their strategy and vision every 2 years, depending of the feeling of the new chairman. Many/most of the board members would not qualify today for YPO, including the Chairmen (they are not CEOs, they do not have large teams), few of them have any experience in running a global business... Rafi/Raymond were on a mission to give the board full leadership and make management "servants" of their strategic and operation decisions - They just laid off all the C suites and an entire department. They created a new rule to keep themselves in a position to influence decisions for another 3 years after they leave the board.... And no one is raising their voice, worried for their jobs (management) or politics repercussion (members)
