Membership Standards

These standards exist to increase the impact of the group on every member through consistency, accountability, and genuine relationship-building.

Eligibility

Bridge is a one-member-per-industry networking group designed to protect opportunity for every seat.

If your industry is represented but can be split into niches or specialties, we will offer that path.
If overlap is too great, your application is placed on Bridge's reserve list.
When a matching position opens, reserved applicants are notified by email right away.

Attendance & Commitment

In-person meetings happen 2x each month, and attendance or business representation is expected.

This group is relationship-based, and face-to-face connection is essential.
If you miss a meeting, notify the group in WhatsApp so attendance expectations stay clear.
More than 2 unexcused absences per quarter may affect membership status.

Participation & Engagement

Members show up prepared, bring clarity, and actively support referrals in both directions.

Bring energy, market updates, and one clear ask every meeting.
Actively give and receive referrals; Bridge is a two-way community.
Follow up on introductions, support each other on social media, and attend member events.

Integrity & Professionalism

Community over competition. Collaboration, confidentiality, and ethical behavior are non-negotiable.

Celebrate wins, support one another through challenges, and protect confidentiality.
Represent Bridge with high professional standards in every interaction.
Contribute to culture with positivity, gratitude, respect, and practical value.

Bench Strategy

First-In-First-Out priority applies to immediate vacancies, with one member per industry to keep referrals focused and fair.
