Being a CEO is Lonely—But It Doesn’t Have to Be. As a CEO, you're expected to have all the answers, but there are few people you can turn to when the pressure mounts. Your team looks to you for leadership. Your board expects results. But who do you talk to when the tough decisions pile up? Here’s the truth: you don’t have to go it alone. Many CEOs turn to CEO Peer Groups—a safe space to share challenges, get feedback, and lean on the collective intelligence of other CEOs who get it. These groups consist of experienced leaders committed to growth. CEOs from various industries bring fresh perspectives that lead to innovative solutions—ideas you might never consider within your own organization. The value of these groups lies in their structure: small, non-competitive groups that dive deep into each member’s critical issues. This isn’t a large conference or generic advice. It’s personalized problem-solving with people who’ve been in your shoes. Think about it: - Your team can’t always know everything—some problems are too big to share openly. - Your board isn’t always the answer—seeking their input on every call might risk your position. - Even your family doesn’t fully understand the stresses of leading an organization. A CEO peer group provides breakthrough ideas from outside your industry, a trusted sounding board, and the chance to work on your business, not just in it—all while freeing up time for strategic decisions. Instead of building an advisory board or hiring consultants, a peer group can be your personal think tank—helping you solve problems faster. This week our guest Dr. Jim Schleckser, founder and CEO of The CEO Project shares why CEO Peer Groups can be a game-changer for CEO’s and many other critical topics such why you need to make investing in your team’s growth a top priority.
