It is a team of interaction, socialization, cognitive browsing and organization of targeted activities or events. The team aims at the continuous training of the members of ACEO, drawing topics and information from current affairs without restrictions, (mankind, environment, society, etc.) as well as from modern Headship, satisfying the need for interaction and socialization of members in physical presence or online. This team is an invaluable feedback source providing food for thought and ideas for the Board of Directors as well as different options and ideas for events / actions. Its aim is to exert a positive influence on the ACEO members and the organisations these people work for, on their families and on society as a whole. This Team makes suggestions, plans and acts while the Association organizes different activities, evaluates and estimates things.

Valeria Tsamis, Member of the Board of Directors
The goal of this Team is to promote and strengthen the open perspective in contemporary/modern management that that creates opportunities to advance to Headship positions without discrimination. For the first three years of actions, the Team had already sought to strengthen the presence of women in ACEO & in businesses, while, during the second three-year period, the Team has highlighted the major issue of the exclusion of older executives from the production process. The scope of action for the new three-year period is open and it will be determined by the Team itself, always serving the same purpose, in the context of the issues of concern to the global business community and in line with the goals of ACEO and the needs of its members.
