EO Nashville Once Again Recognized as Rock Star Chapter

Great news! EO Global recently honored Nashville with its annual Rock Star recognition for the 2011-2012 year, again placing Nashville within the top tier of the global organization. This is the forth time since 2008 that Nashville has been named a Rock Star chapter.

Nashville was one of 38 out of 121 chapters globally to win Rock Star. To earn Rock Star distinction an EO chapter has to complete 27 benchmarks in areas of chapter health, including growth, renewals, learning, communications, forum and finance. The Rock Star program was developed to provide EO chapters with an organized way to measure success within the organization. The benchmarks are a set of common metrics that the most successful chapters consistently hit when growing vibrant, valuable organizations.

Being a Rock Star means you’re among the best of the best — it’s Global EO’s way of recognizing our hard work and accomplishments among our peers. Every EO Nashville member shares a part if that success, but we certainly couldn’t have done it without the EO Nashville board and Past President Debbie Gordon.

Congratulations to everyone for making this happen.
