1. The Power of Small Group Networking

Each group will have a maximum of 6 participants which encourages interaction and the formation of trusted relationships. It's a "truism" that people will help people they know and like.

2. Exclusivity

The executives you meet will be leaders in their profession. Each participant in your balanced peer group will have approximately the same number of years of experience in their work history and will be at comparable compensation levels.

3. Structured Facilitation

Each of the networking sessions will be led by a qualified facilitator. The discussions are designed for you to get to know your colleagues really well in order to get "behind the resume."

4. Career Management Coaching

Through questions asked by the facilitator as well as by your colleagues, you will get fresh insights into your personal career management.

5. Information Sharing

Do you want to serve of a Board of Directors? Do you want to teach at the university level? Do you want to start a consulting firm? Do you want to raise venture capital money? There is a high level of collective wisdom in each group and the participants will be able to help each other find workable solutions to their questions.

6. High Touch

We are with you for the long term. The relationship doesn't stop at the end of the 4 weeks. The facilitator will periodically follow up with you to answer questions or address issues. Your group participants will also follow up with you. You now have a Board of Advisors.

7. Alumni Networking

Coffee & Conversation alumni are invited to participate in our LinkedIn Group network as a way to stay connected, as well as participate in reunions with other forum alumni. These events provide a wonderful opportunity to continue the discussions started during your four-week sessions as well as develop new networking opportunities with members of other forum groups.
