For growth-minded executives, thought-leaders, and changemakers who want to maximize their effectiveness, create more value, and do work they're proud of.
The real problem facing top-level executives today is not loneliness. It is isolation.
If you're at the executive level or moving in that direction, it's not uncommon to feel trapped day in and day out, feeling isolated and alone in business.
At the highest levels of leadership, the things that become more scarce are honesty, transparency, and trust. There's a reason they say it is lonely at the top, and this is one of them.
To avoid this, you must go out of your way to develop support systems that provide candid and transparent dialogue. Otherwise, you risk living in a protected bubble - an echo chamber, stuck with blind spots and no one to confide in and work through challenges with.
That's why I created the Chief Executive Peer Advisory Network (CEPAN) – a place where you can get dedicated time and space to focus on you and your most pressing issues with strategic confidants who understand what you're going through and aren't afraid to challenge you on a higher level.
You Don't Have To Go It Alone
Join the Chief Executive Peer Advisory Network and once a month with like-minded executives, you’ll provide and receive feedback & support while forging valuable new relationships with lifelong strategic confidants.

"There is a need for executives who have achieved career success to continue their professional growth in an environment of peers where the exchange of candor is fresh and reliable. In our forum, we are provided with a structure that holds us accountable for goal-setting and honoring our commitments. The sum experiences across the executive forum are deep and rich and span industries and geographies. We regard each other’s strengths and vulnerabilities in a way that is safe and non-threatening and over time has produced for each of us a professional, and also personal, evolution."

Frequently Asked questions
Here are the questions executives just like you have asked.
The Chief Executive Peer Advisory Network is a good fit for you if you can commit to being present and fully engaged for 90% of the network's monthly and quarterly meetings.
Accountability is a vital feature of the Chief Executive Peer Advisory Network. It is about making a commitment to you and other top-performing professionals for four hours once a month and eight hours every quarter. Attendance is expected unless extraordinary circumstances require otherwise.
Each member will attend virtual monthly roundtables scheduled for four hours each and quarterly in-person strategy sessions in Indianapolis, IN, for eight hours each. In addition, members are expected to be available for questions or brief discussions with other members by email or phone on an as-needed basis and as your schedule permits.
Members are asked to sign a confidentiality agreement that requires them to keep confidential information in their groups and not share it with others without explicit permission from the member. We don't place competitors in the same groups to ensure no conflicts.
In addition to curating a group of executive-level members with similar experiences and ambitions, I look for members who are bright, intellectually curious, self-aware, emotionally intelligent, open to learning from others, and willing to share experiences, help their peers, and abide by our confidentiality agreement and code of ethics.
I take the curation of high-performing networks very seriously to ensure a high ROI for everyone involved. So yes, as new members are considered, you will have an opportunity to interact with them during their trial session and provide feedback. Ultimately, the decision to add a new member resides with me, but rest assured, your feedback will weigh heavily on my decision.
The annual membership fee is very affordable (less than $1,000 per month). We've never had any complaints about the investment of time and money, given the high ROI and success members enjoy due to their engagement in the network. You'll receive more information about the fee after you complete your application.
You may join at any time since it is a rolling twelve-month membership.
Complete the form below, and we'll set up a call to discuss the network and explore if there's a good fit. If both parties agree, we'll invite you to participate in a meeting as a trial member to experience the Chief Executive Peer Advisory Network benefits & privileges.
