Leading a business can be isolating. The most consequential challenges are often the ones you have the fewest people with whom you can discuss openly.
The President Peer Network is a virtual-first community that brings together small groups of presidents for confidential, facilitated conversations about the real challenges and opportunities they are navigating. Members gain candid outside perspective, test their thinking, and leave each session with greater clarity about how to move forward. Virtual sessions allow for flexibility in attendance, maximum connection across members, and access to advice from leaders with varied experiences.

What Presidents Are Saying
-
Kerri Roche, President of Managed Services at Compass Group
“The President Peer Network has provided a valuable forum for candid conversations, shared learning, and fresh perspectives from leaders across different industries. The insights and advice I’ve received have helped me think through key decisions and approach challenges from new angles.”
-
Wayne de Koker, President/GM of Craftsman at Stanley Black & Decker
“The peer network has been incredibly valuable because it gives me the opportunity to step outside of my own situation and hear how experienced leaders from completely different industries see the same challenge. That outside perspective has helped me pressure-test my thinking, make better decisions and leave with practical actions I can actually use. Along the way, I’ve also developed some genuine friendships, which has been an unexpected and very rewarding part of the experience.”
-
Yariv Hasar, President of Sapiens NA
“The President Peer Network gives me a safe space to debate and consult with various capable and equivalent professionals, on business, organizations, ecosystem, and personal development and career dilemmas and challenges. Further, hearing others and getting their concerns and issues, while helping them out, it also allows you to better articulate your approach, lessons learned and more, as "the best way to learn something is by teaching it”. Lastly, the unique and focus facilitation of Josh, along with his summaries and academic perspective on the issues on discussion, are invaluable for providing additional material to read and learn, as well as keeping the repository of the value gained throughout the periodic meetings.”
-
Chris Barnsdale, President of Bolton North America
“Being part of this Presidents Peer Network has been very worthwhile opportunity to bring leaders from different industries together to share real challenges, learn from one another’s experiences, and explore practical solutions. It’s somewhat reassuring to hear that we face many of the same opportunities, and there's been excellent engagement to share and debate ideas.”
-
Sheldon Jones, President/GM of GLOVIS America
“The peer network group has been fantastic; it's like executive coaching mixed with therapy to see all the other executives going through the same problems as you are, and working through that has been refreshing, helpful and almost therapeutic.”
In-Person Summits
In addition to virtual conversations, members have early access to in-person summits designed to deepen relationships and create space for more expansive thinking.
Summits bring presidents together for candid discussion, shared learning, and focused work on the challenges and opportunities shaping their organizations and leadership. Through facilitated peer sessions and informal networking, members can step away from daily demands, explore important questions, and build stronger connections with their peers.
