Monthly Council Meetings

The concept of growth through peer-to-peer groups has been around for hundreds of years.  Benjamin Franklin created the Junto in the early 1700’s.  The idea was to draw individuals from diverse occupations and backgrounds who shared in a spirit of inquiry and a desire to improve themselves, their community, and to help others. In 1925, peer-to-peer mentoring was coined mastermind groups by the author Napoleon Hill.  In Napoleon Hill’s case, is was to bring two or more people together in harmony to solve hard problems.

Business Owners Advisory Councils are built around these same guiding principles. The Councils bring ten to twelve business owners together in a private, trusted advisory forum to help each member improve themselves, their businesses, and their communities.

Each Council consists of business owners from different, non-competing industries who come together on a monthly basis to discuss key issues and opportunities with their peers.  The Councils are led by Steve Steinheimer who has over 30 years of experience in starting, operating, and transitioning businesses.

Just because Council Members come to meetings to work on hard problems doesn’t mean they can’t have some fun along the way.  Occasionally Council Meetings are held at offsite locations (i.e., not at once of the Members places of business).  In some instances the Council Members spend two days at a semi-local (driving distance) resort, and in other instances Council Members and their spouses have gone to places like Cabo San Lucas.
