Most leaders have heard about “peer groups,” but many haven’t experienced one—or they assume it’s a mastermind or a coaching cohort. This session clears the fog. We’ll define what a high-trust executive peer circle actually is (and isn’t), why it’s so valuable for you as a leader, and how to find—or shape—the kind of room where candid counsel, earned wisdom, and steady accountability make you better at the job you hold today.
What a real peer circle looks like: Confidential, small-group conversations among senior leaders who show up to serve and listen—not to collect business cards or speakers. We’ll talk about norms that make these rooms honest and useful.
Same-seat vs. cross-functional: When “all CEOs” unlocks depth, and when a mix of CEOs, CMOs, COOs, CFOs, CROs, CTOs, product, CS, and operations leaders sharpens decisions faster. CEO Netweavers has long united leaders across functions, industries, and generations—by design.
Finding (or forming) the right fit: Purpose, membership criteria, cadence, facilitation, and the simple signals that tell you a circle is working—or drifting.
Real-world examples: What actually works, what quietly kills a group, and small changes that transform the room.
Senior leaders shaping organizations today—from C-suite to those reporting directly to them; division and business-unit leaders; operators with real P&L or mission responsibility; and encore executives who advise, invest, mentor, or serve on boards. The common thread: proven influence, a servant-leadership mindset, and a drive to grow both the organization and the person behind the title.
Paid peer organizations (World 50, Vistage, YPO, C12) can be valuable, but they’re often segmented by title and carry five-figure price tags. CEO Netweavers fills a different space: a cross-functional community in Georgia that blends current senior leaders and encore operators—so you gain wider lenses without the high cost barrier. For over two decades, our community has been built on trust, service, and authentic connection—creating rooms where leaders exchange insight, challenge assumptions, and accelerate growth together.
You’ll leave with clear understanding of the personal value a peer circle delivers (clarity in complex decisions, access to hard-won perspective, and a cadence that keeps you grounded)—plus practical criteria to evaluate whether a specific group is right for you. No playbook to implement back at the office—just the insight to invest your time where it will genuinely grow you as a leader.
