What our members say
Our groups combine members from different categories, all facing similar business challenges. Together, we share expertise, challenge one another to think critically and advocate for continued success and growth.
Rodney Frost
CEO of The Lamson Group
I wanted a place where I could go and learn and invest in my own personal and professional development. Having a non-executive board that would hold me accountable and give me a place to present ideas and work through challenges together is something that I’ve found invaluable on my business journey.
Jodie Hawkes
CEO of Bowhill Engineering
Vistage is my sanity check; for myself, our business and our community. I love the speakers, but even more I love the opportunity to delve deep into others issues which almost always leave me with my own take-away and opportunity for improvement.
Ala Mobedi
Director of Mentor Healthcare
I’m what I call a raw businessman. I never studied business, nor did I intend to have a company of 60 employees, so I learn and improvise as I go. Vistage has been an excellent way for me to develop professionally.
