Peer Roundtable Discussion

 

Group members have the opportunity to share questions, updates, and issues and get feedback and fresh ideas from their fellow Executive Forum members. Our Forums provide a safe place for a business owner to discuss his or her business and its challenges and get much needed advice from peers.

Educational Component

 

Local Expert resource speakers or your Forum Leader delivers an Educational Component in most monthly forum meetings. These workshops are focused on business trends, strategic concepts, and management and leadership tools to help you be a more effective business owner. Some past topics have included: “Financial Literacy,” “Best Practices,” “Contribution Margin Analysis,” “Unique Ability,” “Exploring the Foundation of Your Financial House,” “Hiring and Firing in the Recession,” “DISC and Workplace Motivators Assessments,” etc.

Focused Executive

 

Every meeting, a different member gets a chance to go through a structured process called the Focused Executive. This is a peer review process of your business that allows you to gain insight and advice from your Forum members, drawing on their extensive knowledge and business experience. This valuable process produces the perspective you need to achieve the next level. Many Executive Forum members experience breakthroughs in their business as a result of their Focused Executive session.
