Vistage International: The World's Leading Chief Executive Organization

If you are a small- to medium-sized business owner, who do you turn to when you have to make tough, difficult decisions? That is an important consideration in even the best of business situations, let alone today's challenging economic environment.

Imagine having the "ultimate decision-making machine" -- the confidential, collective intelligence of up to 16 successful, non-competing CEOs, with hundreds of years of total business experience -- focusing on your issues and opportunities, sharing their experiences and best practices, and giving you the assurance that all your options have been explored and the confidence to take action.

Gail has been asked by Vistage International -- the world's leading chief executive organization -- to lead a new group of CEOs, presidents, and business owners in and around Pasadena. Interested CEOs and business leaders are invited to attend a free, no-obligation information session that will be held in Pasadena on July 8, in which they can learn about Vistage and the CEO group being formed.

Because we feel that this new group is so important, we are dedicating our entire newsletter this month to Vistage and this CEO Group Information Session. We hope that you will join Gail on July 8th to see how you, too, can gain the Vistage Advantage.

To your success,

Rick and Gail

"Someone to 'vent' to who is neutral and presents objective views. The ability to have new methods of leadership presented in a personal way. Vistage has given me the ability to lead in a way I have always desired, using a personal approach. It has been a crash course in business and I'm benefiting from the results."
