The world needs better leaders. New Jersey builds them.
We are the Garden State's original home of YPO — one of the oldest chapters of the Young Presidents' Organization in the world, where 100 chief executives grow through lifelong learning, candid exchange and friendships that extend to the whole family.

The Organization
One global community. One local home.
YPO is the global leadership community of more than 38,000 chief executives in 150+ countries, united by one belief: the world needs better leaders. Combined, the companies our members lead would rank as the world's third-largest economy.
The New Jersey Integrated chapter is where that community comes to life — founded in 1955, just five years after YPO itself, and the most established chapter in the region. Member-run ever since and capped at 100 members by design, it brings together the founders, owners and chief executives behind the state's most dynamic companies. As an “Integrated” chapter, we unite YPO and YPO Gold members — rising and seasoned chief executives — in one community.

Inside the programCommunity & Family
