Built by executives, for executives to create infinite impact.

At 40 Groups, Inc. executive leaders come together to learn, grow, and lead with purpose. In intimate, resort-style retreats held throughout the year, members step away from daily distractions to focus on strategy, innovation, and personal renewal. Through open dialogue and shared experience, they return to their organizations re-energized and with fresh ideas, trusted relationships, and a renewed sense of mission to strengthen their teams, members, and communities. This isn’t a conference, it is a think-tank of like-minded leaders that want innovative solutions to their toughest challenges.

Top 5 Reasons to join a 40 Group

1. Gain valuable perspectives from a trusted group of peers.

By joining a confidential, peer-advisory group, you get a rare opportunity to work with a small group of high-caliber executives from non-competing organizations. These peers help you evaluate solutions in ways your staff and board cannot.

2. Learn from thought leaders and facilitators who challenge your thinking.

Experienced executives understand that in order to grow, you need world-class thought leaders to spark innovation and activate new ideas to develop you personally and professionally.

3. Leverage insightful data and research from the country’s leading organizations.

Each meeting you will have an opportunity to benchmark your organization against your peers – not based on just asset size, but based on those you truly wish to emulate – so you can see firsthand what’s working, and what’s not.

4. Turn ideas into action with professional facilitators and supportive peers.

Ideas are useless without action. Working with industry focused facilitators you will take home an action plan to turn your ideas into meaningful actions that will impact your organization for years to come.

5. Share, motivate, inspire.

Relax, unwind at a top-tier resort destination and come together for several VIP meetings over 12 months to access the experience, wisdom and insights of other growth-minded achievers. This is a chance to re-charge and gain practical guidance not available anywhere else.

“Attending the CEO 40 Group was a highlight this year. Connecting with CEOs facing similar challenges was invaluable. The open exchange of ideas, strategies, and perspectives sparked new thinking and reinforced the power of collaboration. If you want to expand your network and leave with actionable insights, these sessions are a must-attend.”
