We create transformative environments, experiences, and opportunities that help leaders thrive in all stages of the business lifecycle - and into retirement.
Servant Leadership. We serve our Creator, our team, and our partners above ourselves.
Respect. We value and respect one another and our differences of opinion at all times.
Courage. We have difficult discussions that create breakthroughs in relationships and in business.
Legacy. While today’s business results are imperative, all decisions are made with a healthy future in mind, as well.
Influence. We are experts in our field of work and, as such, are influential in the lives and businesses of our team members and partners.
Passion. We do what we do because we love and are committed to the difference we get to make each day.
In all of these groups, we have experienced facilitators and coaches who have been, or are, in your situation. We will dive into the details of your business, your position, your goals, and much more. You will meet many others in your situation, and will learn from their experience, just as they will learn from yours.
You are currently leading a family business and would like to join a group of other family business leaders.
You are on the path to becoming the CEO and/or owner of your family's business, and would like to join a group of other next gen leaders.
You are a "C" suite leader in a family business, but you are not a member of the ownership family. We will discuss the intricacies of leadership in these situations. You wear many hats, and are certainly a trusted member of the team, but there are aspects to your role that are very unique.
You have retired, or are soon to be retired, and would like to get into a group of others who are contemplating retirement, wondering what is next for you, or are interested in finding new projects, mentoring younger generations of leaders, etc. This group will focus on service, mentorship, leadership development and other ways of maximizing your experience.
You are a man or woman of faith, and you lead a business. How do you incorporate your beliefs and faith into your business and your leadership?
You lead a nonprofit, and would like to join a group of other nonprofit leaders to discuss the many facets of leading a nonprofit, developing and retaining talent, managing existing donor relationships, finding new donors, developing strategy, and much more.
You are on track to move into "C" suite leadership in the nonprofit where you work, or would like to develop your skills to eventually move into the top position in a nonprofit.
We are considering hosting industry specific groups, as well, such as marketing, hospitality, sports, education, and more.
