Jason E. Ebey, IOM, has been leading chambers of commerce for more than a decade, both from within as an executive in a number of chambers and from without as a consultant with YGM. He understands the needs of chambers and their members. He has a passion for business and communities.Jason knows that increasing membership is important for chamber of commerce growth, but more than that, he knows that having an overarching plan in place - the kinds of plans that YGM offers - can provide chambers with more than a one-time boost in membership. YGM plans can provide the kind of increase in volunteers, education and fundraising that lead to lasting growth in membership. Having worked with both small and large chambers of commerce, Jason has a knowledge base that easily translates into moving groups of volunteers into innovative approaches to fundraising. He can show chambers how to move toward greater non-dues based campaign earnings that many have ever experienced before. Jason has completed the United States Chamber of Commerce Institute of Organizational Management (IOM) and is working toward his master's degree in non-profit administration and management. Jason joined YGM in 2012 and became CEO after he purchased the company in mid-2015.
