A small group of senior operators meeting on a regular cadence.
An invite-only circle for private equity operators, operating partners, and mid-market CEOs. Async by default, with periodic live sessions. Curated for fit, not filled for volume.
The value of a peer group is the people in it. Most are filled for volume and end up as forums for vendors selling to the room. This one is small, vetted, free of vendors, and structured around the decisions members are actually making.
When this engagement makes sense
You are an operating partner or portfolio CEO and your usual peer set is too generalist.
You want a forum where you can pressure-test a decision before the board sees it.
You are tired of mastermind groups that turned into vendor pitches.
You are in a complex transition (raise, integration, exit) and want senior peers who have done it.
The deliverables
Vetted membership
Every member is sponsored or interviewed in. Caps in place per fund, per sector, and per role to keep the room balanced and free of direct competitors.
Async-first cadence
A private space where members post live decisions and get candid input. The default is async; live time is for high-bandwidth conversations.
Quarterly live sessions
A working session each quarter, hosted in a serious format. Member-led topics. Outside speakers only when they add what the room does not have.
Direct facilitator access
I am in the room as an operator, not as a host. Members can pull me in directly for a working session on their decision.
No vendors. Ever.
No sponsors. No partners. No invited guests selling. The room exists for the members.
A good fit if
- PE operating partners.
- Mid-market and lower-mid-market portfolio CEOs.
- Independent sponsors running multiple deals.
- Senior in-house operators (CTOs, CROs, COOs) inside PE-backed businesses.
Probably not if
- Consultants and advisors selling into the room.
- Pre-revenue founders.
- Members looking for a content firehose rather than a peer conversation.
