The Most Effective CEOs Work ON (NOT in) the Business.

Selecting CEOs and Owners For Peer Advisory Board

The most effective CEOs understand and value strategic solitude and deep thought. These CEOs constantly gather insight from new and unfiltered sources. You won’t find these CEOs on the tactical treadmill to nowhere. These CEOs are not lonely and isolated. These CEOs seek out ways to manage the stress and fatigue of the job. These CEOs join and become valuable members of peer advisory groups. These CEOs connect with other CEOs and build deep bonds of trust. They lead powerfully. They get results faster. They are just a whole lot happier professionally and personally.

Who am I?

I am a Vistage Chair with an energized peer advisory board of CEOs in the Atlanta area. My group launched in November 2016, and I’m taking applications for remaining seats now. Are you a candidate? Read on to find out.

Are you a leader working ON or IN your business?

Every CEO, president, founder, or business owner aims to accomplish more in their business, fix something internally or avoid a costly mistake. Imagine a dozen or more fellow CEOs and business owners sharing their advice and perspectives on your challenges and opportunities. Vistage peer advisory groups helps CEOs grow their businesses by outpacing their competition, achieving significant success, with less hours and better personal relationships.

Result? Vistage member companies grow at 3x the rate of average U.S. companies.

My Selection Process

A critical part of my Chairing is to select and invite only the highest quality members to join my CEO peer advisory board. This is a mutual selection process and journey.

The Mutual Selection Journey is a guided process to help us explore chemistry with each other and within the peer group. If you’re serious about leadership growth – if you’re ready to take your company to the next level – then commit to these actions:

  1. Reserve your seat for the Atlanta Executive Exchange on February 22, 2017 here: Atlanta Executive Exchange

  2. Talk with me for 10-minutes by phone. I want to understand your opportunities and challenges.

  3. Meet me in your office for 30-45 minutes. I want to get a sense for what drives you.

  4. If asked, commit to a 90-minute selection interview free of interruptions and distractions.

  5. If offered a seat in the group – answer, “yes!” or “no!”. Don’t say, “Maybe.”

Let’s get to know each other. The power of peers is a game-changer for CEOs and owners like you. If you are selected you will embark on a remarkable journey because of the extraordinary chief executive peers surrounding you.
