The premium provider of peer-consultation forums for highly successful men.
Are you on top of your life?
Do you have a clear sense of purpose?
Do you have the relationships you want?
Will people remember you after you’re gone? The way you hope to be remembered?
Most successful men are forced to back burner these life questions while they are on the ascent. They have no extra bandwidth.
Then, the second half of life changes everything.
What you did, recognition and money hardly matter anymore.
You need a new playbook—purpose, relationships and legacy—to know where you are going.
We are trusted advisors on these questions to some of the most successful men in America.
We have pioneered a new solution, a peer-consultation forum unlike any other, to help you on your journey.
Forums are a powerful tool—in theory. Get eight men in a room monthly to confidentially share experiences and help each other figure out their journey. It’s like your personal board of directors.
In reality, conventional forums often don’t work out that way. They can be a time sink and frustrating. Participants drop out—more often than YPO, Vistage, Tiger 21 and other exclusive leadership organizations that sponsor forums like to admit.
