About YECThe Young Executive Club is a twenty-four year old professional organization whose mission is to promote leadership among new executives by creating forums with today's top business, civic and government figures. The club was founded by a small group of MBA's from the University of Chicago, who wanted to learn from leading executives from different fields of business.We take pride in the quality and diversity of our membership. Members generally range in age from 27 to 45, and have a minimum of seven years practical business experience. Many of our members are investment bankers, entrepreneurs, management consultants, accountants, general managers, attorneys, commercial bankers, advertising executives, public relations executives, and officers of private and public companies. Many of our members have graduate degrees in areas such as law, business, medicine, psychology and even intellectual property. We continue to restrict membership to foster informality and personal relationships. We seek mature, professional and interesting young professionals on an executive career path. Demonstrated leadership and business success are essential. We strive to achieve a diverse membership in all respects and individuals who want to get involved and participate. Our speakers are successful executives and entrepreneurs who provide
insight into their responsibilities, industries, roles in their community,
and career strategies that have taken them to the top of their respective
fields. We seek a balance between representatives of large, public institutions
and growing and noteworthy privately-held companies. YEC is proud of the
caliber of the speakers at our monthly luncheons. We believe our ability
to consistently attract an impressive array of presenters is a testament
to the quality of our members and our organization.
