2016 CEO Retreat
This year’s CEO Retreat program highlights what every CEO needs the most – focus. As CEOs we are constantly pulled in many directions, stretched too thin, overworked and not as productive as we want to be. Our world-class presenters bring experience and expertise on the topic of finding ways to focus on what matters for the CEO. And, you will have lots of ways to connect with the other experts – your peers. Come connect, learn and grow!
The 2016 VACEOs CEO Retreat takes place April 27-29. Register today or download the 2016 Retreat PDF. The Retreat is for members and sponsors only. Contact us to find out how to get connected with our community of nearly 200 small business CEOs.

Crafting Contagious
Why do some things catch on while others fail? What makes online content go viral? And why do some products, ideas, and behaviors get more word of mouth than others? Professor Jonah Berger examines the behavioral science that underlies these questions. He examines how consumers make decisions, how ideas diffuse, and how social influence leads people to imitate (or avoid) what others are doing.
Berger is a Marketing professor at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania and a visiting professor at Cornell Tech. He has published dozens of articles in top-tier academic journals, and popular accounts of his work frequently appear in popular outlets like the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, NPR, Science, Harvard Business Review.
