Membership
is earned.

YPO Indiana is a Charter Chapter of the world's premier leadership community of business leaders. For 75 years, a place here is earned through commitment and a shared standard, and it opens the door to a global network of more than 34,000 leaders across 150+ countries.

Why YPO Indiana

Running a company has challenges that few people understand.

The Circle That Does is Small.

The decisions are relentless. The stakes are personal. The circle of people who truly understand what the work demands is small. YPO Indiana exists to change that.

As one of the original Charter Chapters of YPO, Indiana has been home to the state's most accomplished chief executives since 1951. Our 125 active members lead companies that generate more than $12 billion in combined annual revenue and employ over 200,000 people across the state.

But the numbers tell only part of the story. What sets this chapter apart is its history, its culture, and the depth of connection among its members. Here, conversations happen the way they should: in confidence, with candor, among peers.

How membership works

Five things
that make a member.

Membership is governed by YPO global criteria, with chapter-level sponsorship and review. The bar is high, and so is the expectation that you will participate fully once you are in.

01
Top Executive
You hold the senior-most operational role in your organization: President, CEO, Chairperson of the Board, Managing Director, Managing Partner, or an equivalent title.
02
Significant Scale
Your company generates at least $16 million in annual revenue, or carries an enterprise value of $27 million or more.
03
Established Workforce
Your company employs 50 or more full-time people, or 15 or more full-time employees plus at least $2.75 million in annual employee compensation.
04
Under the Age Threshold
You join before age 45. YPO's entry age limit reflects its mission to develop leaders early. Members continue well beyond it; new members simply must enter before.
05
A Shared Standard
You embrace YPO's code of confidentiality, integrity, and mutual respect. These shared standards are what turn a group of accomplished executives into a community built on trust.
