ELE’s Wisconsin community traces back to our first Milwaukee conference at Harley-Davidson in 2011. Today, the hub brings people leaders together to compare notes, work through real business challenges, and turn trusted peer exchange into clearer next steps.

Upcoming Global + Local ELE Experiences

Wisconsin’s next local calendar is taking shape — anchored by ELE’s broader network and the leaders helping build what comes next.

This summer, ELE is leaving more room on the calendar for members to propose meetups, surface real work, and help decide what deserves a live interactive discussion. If Wisconsin leaders want the calendar to reflect what matters here, the conversation has to start here — with the challenges, decisions, and opportunities people are actually facing.


What's Expected of You:

Start by talking with an ELE Community Director — or volunteer to help lead locally.

Then connect with a few local ELE members or trusted peers. Identify a possible topic, time, and venue worth gathering around. Submit the meetup idea so ELE can help shape it, amplify the right voices, and promote it to the broader community.

This is how communities are built: by the community.

Help Shape the Wisconsin Conversation

Wisconsin’s next chapter starts with the real work local leaders are trying to move forward.

Use the Wisconsin Idea Exchange to name the challenges, decisions, and opportunities that should shape future meetups and live interactive discussions.

If Wisconsin leaders want the calendar to reflect what matters here, the conversation has to start here — with the people closest to the work.
