You Are a Business Owner or CEO:

• Are you on plan?
• Do you have a clear vision for yourself and your company in five years?
• Are you grappling with decisions you would like to have behind you?
• Does it get a little lonely some days?

Do any of these issues seem familiar to you? It may be time for you to investigate the value of participating in an Inner Circle. We have been operating in San Diego since 1994, and nationally since 1985. Each Inner Circle is a permanent group of 10-15 non-competing, business owners/CEOs who meet monthly. An Inner Circle is a combination ad hoc board of directors, a team of peer advisors, a CEO business practices laboratory and a trusted group of wise and supportive friends.

The Reasons We Come Together

• Reduce the inherent isolation of running a company
• Reduce the blind spots
• Get a grasp on what they don’t know
• Establish and stay focused on their personal vision and their company’s vision,
• Or they just recognize the value of the camaraderie that develops among a group of supportive, like minded, successful individuals

With all the dramatic changes in the way we work – technology, communications, globalization, rapid economic change – the pressure on business leaders has never been greater. With the pace that you have to make decisions, and the all consuming role in which you find yourself, the ability to share and brainstorm with other leaders you respect becomes more invaluable every day!

The Types of Issues We Work On

• The challenges a founder faces in hiring a CEO to replace him
• Developing exit strategies for the founder
• What to do with a valued long-term employee who is not able to grow to the next stage of the company
• The issues involved in investing in capital improvements in a time of economic and industry uncertainty
• Managing cash flow in a time of rapid change
• Finding a new purpose and passion after selling the company
• Finding, developing and retaining valuable personnel
• How to create a balance among business, family and self preservation
• Raising prices as a strategic component of a new marketing plan
• Whether to close down a branch location and its effect on market share versus cost savings
• How to get the partners in a professional firm to recognize the value of managing the firm like a business
