Chief
Senior women executives with at least fifteen years of leadership experience, from C-suite officers to founders and independent operators.
Women Presidents Organization
Women who own and run privately held companies above WPO's revenue thresholds.
Chief and WPO are both organizations for women leaders and are otherwise different in almost every structural respect. Chief admits women with fifteen or more years of leadership experience through several routes — C-suite officers of large companies, senior leaders at mid-market to enterprise companies, and builders with US$2 million in revenue or venture funding — and delivers six guided Core sessions a year or four coaching sessions plus events and clubhouse access; it is a venture-funded company with a national footprint, and it does not publish its price. WPO admits women who own and run privately held companies above US$2 million in gross sales (US$1 million for service businesses), places them in monthly facilitated chapters of non-competing owners, and tiers its groups by company size — Platinum above US$10 million and Zenith above US$50 million meet three times a year rather than monthly; it publishes no dues.

각각 더 적합한 대상
편집 분석으로, 위의 기록과 구분된다. 다음 내용으로 이어진다 방법론. 어느 단체가 더 우수하다고 판정하지 않는다; 적합성이 기준이다.
Chief tends to suit senior executives, including those who do not own a business, who want a large national network, executive-coaching and events, and who are often sponsored by an employer. WPO tends to suit owners who want a peer board of other owners at a comparable company size and a monthly cadence. The ownership test is the dividing line: a chief marketing officer of a large company qualifies for Chief and not WPO; the owner of a US$4 million firm qualifies for WPO and, if she has fifteen years of leadership, possibly for Chief's builder route.
