CEO Climb Team

"Vistage is my network of
knowledge and inspiration.”

Who you take the climb with is just as important as the climb itself.

You and your peers share the same goal: to be an extraordinary leader who inspires remarkable results. We’ve designed our Key Executive groups (aka "Climb Teams") to be a place where you and your peers work toward attaining your objectives, both professional and personal.

 

Surrounding yourself with others who will support you, challenge you, encourage you and equip you to reach heights beyond expectations is a key value-add of Vistage.

The ascent

For more than 60 years, and working with more than 100,000 CEOs over that time, our entire business focus has been studying CEO performance. We have clearly identified that the highest performing CEOs—those who are consistently growing faster than their peers—are doing things differently than the rest.


There are three things that separate them:

  1. They step away from their day-to-day duties on a regular basis to think about and focus on their business, rather than in their business. They get out of the weeds and are able to focus on strategy. We’ve found once per month is optimal.

  2. They connect with other leaders in like roles and share learnings to help each other make important, more informed decisions. They become better decision-makers and are more confident in the decisions they make.

  3. They are constantly looking for outside perspectives for new and innovative ideas to bring into their businesses.

 

At Vistage, we help CEOs do these three things, and we know it works because we compared the growth of our member companies to that of similarly sized companies through D&B and our member companies grew, on average, 2.2x faster.
