Joining a Vistage group begins with a conversation. The process is straightforward and designed to ensure it’s the right fit — for you and for the group.

  1. Connect with a Vistage Chair — Reach out directly to me or complete the contact form on this site. We’ll schedule a confidential, no-obligation conversation to learn about you, your business, and your goals.

  2. Explore the fit — We’ll discuss how Vistage works, what membership looks like, and whether the peer advisory model aligns with where you are and where you want to go. There’s no pressure — this is about finding the right match.

  3. Meet the group — If there’s mutual interest, you’ll have the opportunity to meet the members of the group before making any commitment. Vistage groups are small by design — typically 12 to 18 CEOs and senior executives — so the chemistry and trust among members matter.

  4. Make the decision — Membership is by invitation. Once both sides feel confident it’s the right fit, we’ll walk through the details and get you started.
