The CEO Council of New York
Where New York CEOs Come to Think — And Decide
Accelerate growth, sharpen decisions, and end the isolation of leadership

Chief executives in
peer advisory groups on average grow annual revenues 4.6% to 9.3% higher
than comparable-sized businesses in their industry (based on an
analysis of Dun & Bradstreet data).
Peer Board membership offers more than just advice. You gain the collective intelligence of peers who reveal blind spots and offer practical, battle-tested solutions.
Members of CEO Council Peer Boards report measurable gains in revenue, profit margins, and leadership effectiveness — plus relief from loneliness-at-the-top.
Why CEOs join a peer advisory group or board
Solve the problems you can’t solve alone. Stop processing strategic challenges in a vacuum. Whether restructuring distribution channels, aligning investors on a turnaround, or scaling decision-making through KPIs, you gain the collective intelligence of peers who have been there before.
Make better, faster decisions. Most groups offer "facilitated discussion"; we provide decision support. Our curated groups provide the sharp, diverse perspectives you need to stop weighing options and start executing.
Stay accountable. Leadership is easier when you aren't the only one watching. When you commit to strategic actions in front of your peers, priorities actually get done.
Accelerate growth & profit margins. Peer Board member companies consistently outperform their competitors in employee engagement, revenue growth, and overall profitability.
Protect your personal sanity. Leadership is lonely. Find a trusted "inner circle" of local peers who understand the high-stakes tradeoffs no one else does.

Why CEO Council Peer Boards are more effective
Grounded in Your Local Reality. While national networks offer generic advice, our boards are state-based. We address the unique needs of regional chief executives navigating the specific regulatory, talent, and economic environment of the market where you actually operate. .
Curated, High-Caliber Membership. Each board is limited to 8–10 peer-level chief executives. No competitors, no vendors, and no sales pitches—just a carefully matched group of leaders chosen to provide the highest alignment and value.
Professional facilitation + peer-led rigor. Meetings are led by trained and certified CEO Council Chairs with deep executive experience. They ensure every session is focused on high-value, actionable outcomes rather than passive conversation.
Our proprietary DeepDive™ framework. Move beyond the "roundtable" format. Our DeepDive™ process is a structured, formal brainstorming engine designed to ruthlessly uncover root causes, test your assumptions, and reveal the blind spots that hold your business back. You receive unbiased strategic advice and well-thought-out solutions, not just "opinions."
Flexible Formats Built for Your Calendar. We respect the demands of a CEO’s schedule. Meeting dates, times, and formats (in-person, virtual, or hybrid) are determined by the members of each board to preserve the intimacy and trust that drive results.
A Safe, Risk-Free Decision. We offer a simple, no-contract model with monthly dues and a written satisfaction guarantee. Our members rarely leave because the ongoing return on their time and investment is exceptionally high .
The Commitment
To maintain the integrity and ROI of each Peer Board, all members agree to:
Time: A 4-hour monthly commitment for Peer Board sessions.
Confidentiality: A strict non-compete environment—no vendors, no competitors, no agendas but to help you.
Rigor: A willingness to engage in total honesty and the proprietary DeepDive™ process.
The Bottom Line
If you are ready to stop weighing options and start making the best possible decisions & faster execution—backed by the rigorous support of a private board of peers, request a confidential conversation. We’ll discuss your specific goals, explain our proprietary DeepDive™ methodology, and assess which membership level fits your current needs best.
