Mike Dreese
“You
can’t really argue with the peer group concept, unbiased feedback from
intelligent peers on important decisions for you and your business.
Three things matter, the group members, the format, and the leader.
Our group has a limited number of members and high retention.
This allows us to really know each other and each other’s business.
Rather than discussing 10 minute surface issues, we have time to go
deep on very strategic issues that really matter to the business. Since
the members are all experienced CEOs, the effect of the combined
intelligence in addition to a buttoned up, well run meeting is
incomparable to any other forum.
Melissa Raffoni delivers value way beyond that of ‘moderator’. Her extensive consulting background enables her to contribute fully as an ‘extra’ CEO in the group, with insights which otherwise go unearthed."
