For years, our members have been asking for a peer learning experience for their second in command. The VACEOs Board of Directors asked staff to create a peer learning experience for COOs, GMs, number twos, etc., as a pilot program for 2023.
Learning with peers accelerates the abilities of professionals. We know that from decades of serving CEOs in this way.
VACEOs is offering a cohort-style program for key executives from member companies that will:
- Create meaningful connections with other professionals. A trusted network.
- Accelerate the learning and growth of these professionals by expanding their perspectives and exposing them to others’ experiences.
- Connect them with experts from the community in a wide range of disciplines.
Beginning on January 20, 2023, a group of 8 to 10 executives will meet monthly through September. These three-hour meetings will be led by a professional facilitator and consist of two elements.
- A confidential peer roundtable experience that gives everyone the chance to share issues and opportunities, and to learn from one another’s experiences. Essentially, a “lite” version of our CEO Roundtables format.
- Learning from subject matter experts, drawn from VACEOs sponsors, on topics like strategy, execution, culture, technology, compliance, finance, HR, marketing, sales, etc.
This is not a VACEOs membership, but a program that we are offering to key executives in our members’ companies. Participants are expected to commit to 100% attendance.
As of October 31 we are no longer taking applications. If you have any questions, please email info@vaceos.org.
