BackDiamond Bridge is a home for tenured EO leaders living globally connected lives — operators, nomads, and cultural bridges who've already shaped EO on the regional or global stage. Two flagship retreats a year, a forum built around your time zone, and a small, deliberate community of peers you'll actually want to text at 2am from Zurich.
This is a chapter for people whose EO story already crosses borders. Membership is assessed by our Membership Committee and Board against three lenses:
A minimum of 5 years in EO in good standing. Alumni who left in good standing after 5+ years may also be eligible — even if the business has been sold.
T1 or T2 Regional or Global leadership. T3 leaders and chairs of qualifying Regional or Global programs may also qualify with demonstrated global engagement or Leadership Academy attendance.
A global business, life, or worldview — international operations, intercultural partnerships, a nomadic or multi-country lifestyle, or an avid interest in global affairs.




Two in-person retreats a year, scheduled around existing regional or global EO events. Retreats have a supplemental cost depending on location. Forum participation is required and matched to your time zone — some forums add in-person retreats, others stay fully virtual.
All fields are required unless noted. Your responses go directly to the Membership Committee and Board.
