I’ve been in EO (Entrepreneurs Organization) NYC for nearly 1 year. I served on the board as Membership Integration for about 6 months. This June, I will serve as communications co-chair of the chapter. In order for all the chapters around the country and the world to make sure that everyone is on the same page, each year, EO holds a Global Leadership Conference (GLC). This year it was held in New Orleans.
For two days, volunteers and staff held intense trainings for all Board positions.
Our last night in New Orleans, EO wanted to do something special for all the volunteer Board Members. We were escorted via luxury bus to Mardi Gras World where we saw all the colorful and interesting Mardi Gras floats. It was truly amazing.
After that, we all followed a marching band by the floats into a large plantation home where we were served a scrumptuous buffet dinner.
GLC was an amazing experience because I met so many entrepreneurs from around the world. It was so interesting to hear what everyone did and although we live in very different places and we work in different environments, we are all so similar!
Here are some of the floats we saw at Mardi Gras world….
