Thank you for the positive comments and 4 star rating about working for YPO! We also appreciate your feedback about your work load and performance expectations. As you probably know after being with YPO for a while now, to stay relevant and create the best possible experience for our members, changes are sometimes necessary. Last year brought several as we aligned our operations to a focused strategy, updated systems and streamlined processes. These dynamic and exciting changes can often lead to extra stress in the interim. YPO is keenly focused on work-life balance as we have shared in several other posts here on Glassdoor. That isn’t changing. Whenever a team member has concerns, we would expect them to raise the topic with their manager, and for their manager to be available to discuss these further. As a next level resource, our HR team is happy to talk about the concerns as well. Once again, thank you for being part of YPO and for all your hard work.

Pros

The volunteers are engaged and care about the mission of YPO.

Cons

Leadership rebranded to YPO and YPO Gold without truly understanding the ramifications for the constituents over age 50 and their opportunities to remain engaged at a high level. C-Suite is fascinated with the idea of sharing their "story", which is basically a feel-good soliloquy that spins why they and YPO are so passionate and caring. It is manipulative and unauthentic.

Thank you for your feedback and insights. Like every organization, YPO is not the environment for everyone. YPO has over 25,000 members across the globe who passionately volunteer their time, talents and leadership to their peers and the organization as a whole. Members from both YPO and YPO Gold chapters were involved in the development of the strategy for both the Lifelong Leadership and Learning and the rebranding. These are exciting times that naturally bring about stress from changes while delivering top programs to the YPO membership. We appreciate your thoughts and are sorry your experience was not a positive one overall.

Thank you for your thoughts about YPO and although we’re happy to hear of your positive experience, we’re also disappointed to learn that this experience is not all positive. The Chapter Manager or Chapter Administrator role is an important one that supports the YPO membership based upon a geographical area. All Chapter Managers or Chapter Administrators are employed directly with the individual chapter and separate from the larger YPO international organization. With a highly engaged workforce who is committed to the organization’s mission, we are focused on the work/life aspect for our people and we appreciate your insight into this subject.
