The Decisions That Shape Enterprise Value. As organizations grow, complexity increases and alignment can begin to break down across strategy, priorities, organizational structure, talent and capital. Drawing on an operator’s perspective, the discussion will explore how CEOs navigate these inflection points, including what to prioritize, how to align structure and leadership with the next stage of growth, where to deploy capital, and how to sequence critical decisions. We will also examine how these choices strengthen, or quietly constrain, long-term enterprise value.

The CEO Forum is a quarterly discussion meeting over dinner for CEOs, business owners and other selected senior executives representing companies with annual revenues generally between $25 million and $1 billion+. Over 250 CEOs have attended since our first meeting in 2004, with many current "regulars." A typical dinner discussion group has a CEO leading the discussion on an important topic of interest, with 25 to 30 CEOs attending.
