What is the Best Time to Join a CEO Roundtable?

7700 CEOs.

Over the last 22 years, I think I have met, spoken, texted, or emailed with 7700 CEOs. More than 1100 of them joined VACEOs and participated in a peer roundtable.

Not once, ever, have I had a member tell me, “Boy, I sure am glad I waited to join you!”

However, many times I have heard a CEO say, “I really wish I had done this sooner.”

So, what’s the best time for you to join a roundtable? “Now” is the short answer. Certainly, you need to be determined to commit to your roundtable peers with your presence at every meeting and with your full-on participation at those meetings.

Don’t have time, you say? You never will. No one has time. But you must do it if you want to grow yourself as a CEO and your business and its value.

  1. Nail on the head here Scot. Saying you’re too busy for a peer forum is like saying you can’t go to the doctor because you’re sick.
