“We were pursuing an acquisition — and having the right CEO peer group helped me pressure-test every critical decision.”“
CEO Peer Groups: You Are In Good Company
The CEO Project is a confidential CEO peer group platform built specifically for leaders of $50M–$2B companies navigating scale, complexity, and high-stakes decisions.
Our members are CEOs who are:
• Leading through growth inflection points, acquisitions, or multi-site expansion
• Working with institutional capital or active boards
• Upgrading leadership teams for succession or exit
• Seeking substance over networking
They are humble learners, committed to continuous improvement — and to building enduring enterprise value.
We have a national and exclusive membership of approximately 100 CEOs, organized into carefully curated, non-competing groups of 8–10 members.
Each CEO peer group functions like a personal board of directors — ensuring every conversation is directly relevant, and every member has time on the issues that matter most.
Our members come from a broad range of industries and business models. That diversity drives lateral insight — often the most breakthrough ideas come from outside your own sector.

How It Works: Curated CEO Peer Groups + Battle-Tested CEO Partners
Quarterly Peer Group Meetings (1.5 Days)
Each quarter, your CEO peer group meets in person for a tightly facilitated working session focused on real issues — not theory.
These meetings help you:
- pressure-test strategic decisions
- assess risk and opportunity
- learn from CEOs who have been there
- move forward with clarity
It’s like the board you wish you had — without competitors, agendas, or noise.
Monthly One-on-One CEO Coaching Sessions
Beyond the quarterly peer group meetings, you’ll meet monthly with your CEO Partner — a current or former operator who has led companies at your scale.
These sessions provide focused decision support on your most critical priorities: strategy, capital deployment, M&A, pricing, talent, and execution.
Accountability That Drives Results
You’ll build real relationships with your peers — but this is not a social club.
Your CEO peer group will challenge your thinking, hold you accountable, and help you follow through on the decisions that expand business worth and enterprise value.
