Where The Best CEOs get Better

Our purpose is to provide CEOs of emerging companies with the tools and resources they need to improve their companies' performance.

We believe that the CEO is the highest leverage point in the organization. We've learned that there is no perfect type of CEO, no formal CEO training, nor always-straight answers to questions that CEOs struggle with every day. While it sounds like a cliché, it is lonely at the top. Even the best management team and board members fight the urge to be biased, given their humanity and nature of their roles.

Understanding this, we strongly advocate that CEOs be a part of well-managed CEO Peer Group. As easy as it may sound, finding the right group is no easy task. We take pride in the rigor and care by which we assemble groups.

Our Peer Groups are not simply support groups--they are programs that use proven methodologies to help CEOs identify, articulate, and execute intelligent business strategy. Because CEOs are extremely busy, we insist on 100% attendance, preparation, and CEO-level strategic content. As a result, our CEOs represent some of the most strategic minds in business. Their acumen is extremely high.

While working with CEOs for over a decade, we constantly seek new ways to provide value and support. This has led to our other services, including:

"Melissa's skills as both a strategic consultant and moderator are a rare combination. She brings both insight and tools. She's really good at both helping CEOs to isolate core issues and framing them in a way to get optimal feedback. As a result, the feedback I've gotten on cases I have brought before the group has contributed substantially to improvements in our bottom line."

- Roger Greene, CEO, Ipswitch.
