“This Forum has been helpful when I least expected it. Upon initiation to the group, I felt a strong sense of imposter syndrome. I soon realized that I wasn't alone with troubles as a CEO. There were others that were facing similar obstacles, and the Forum helped me resolve them with confidence.”
“It’s probably the single most useful thing you can have. I recommend this to almost every CEO I meet as the number one thing they should do.”
Peter Kecskemethy, CEO of Kheiron Medical

Co-Founder & CEO, Feebris
“This Forum has been transformative for my growth as a founder and my ability to lead the business through the challenges of a pandemic and an economic crisis. Being able to step into the shoes of other founders and immerse myself in their challenges has been a huge source of inspiration and perspective. And equally trusting the other team members with some of my biggest challenges has helped me make tough decisions and find the resilience to keep riding the rollercoaster. As a founder, you can often feel lost, and the group has been an energy compass for me, with every session leaving me full of ideas and commitment to break new ground.”
