Welcome to the Executives Association of Great Britain website

I am delighted to take over the role of EAGB Chairman in 2008. 

 As Chairman of the Association, I am delighted to encourage senior professionals from all business sectors to explore the EAGB proposition and attend one of our lunches at the Dorchester to sample a networking Association second to none in terms of its pedigree and the opportunities it affords its members. The Executives Association of Great Britain is a not for profit organisation which has supported a wide variety of charities over the years.

The final toast of at an EAGB luncheon is “Creating Business.”  I aim to create an environment where, for the benefit of all our members, rather than just some, we do precisely that.  I look forward to continuing those aspects of the EAGB which have been so well received over the years while building new and innovative opportunities for our members, making 2008 a great year for all.
