My experience operating as a lone wolf running an organization gives me firsthand knowledge of the isolation CEO’s can feel. Without a trusted group of advisors for counsel and feedback, decision making can be very stressful, especially in times of growth or unexpected economic climates. I became a Vistage chair to help executives solve problems and make better decisions as their company expands.Vistage is the world’s leading executive coaching organization with more than 24,000 members across the globe. This network serves as a guide for you and your company. High-performing CEO’s connect with other like-minded executives though a trusted, proven leadership experience that delivers results. It’s where leaders get fresh perspectives, clarity, and support to make big decisions.I lead private peer advisory groups where leaders connect with their peers for unbiased business insights and counsel in a safe, confidential, non-competitive environment. I also provide one-on-one coaching sessions. In addition, members have access to world-class speakers on a variety of relevant business topics that inspire them to think differently.Being part of my Vistage group could be the answer you’ve been seeking.
