Join Us: Membership Options
Voting Members
By invitation, the Voting Membership tier will include representatives from all industries and sectors who will regularly vote to determine which metrics and methodologies become an industry success standard. Additionally, all voting members will have access to all partner training materials.
Invitations will be sent to executives, senior management, NGO and not-for-profit leaders, activists, government officials, and more. Specific criteria for voting membership is being defined.
These individuals will be voting on metrics and methodologies/approaches specific to their specialization areas. Each ballot will be customized to include issues specific to their area of expertise and will ensure that proper representation metrics will be met. We will be determining criteria for industry acceptance and adoption.
