The CEO peer group
where command gets easier.
The Chairman's Circle is a private operating forum for real business operators — people building companies, managing teams, and making high-stakes decisions every day. You don't have to carry the entire burden alone anymore.
Real operators. Real problems.
Real solutions.
Market dynamics
We pressure-test your read of the market, competitors, and positioning.
Operational bottlenecks
We surface the constraints silently taxing your margin, throughput, and people.
Leadership challenges
We work on leadership psychology — the real lever behind everything else.
Strategic pivots
We figure out when to hold, when to pivot, and when to say no.
Two tiers. Both private.
Both non-casual.
No contracts. Value-based retention. If the Circle stops helping you grow, you're free to leave at any time.

Some decisions can't wait for
next Tuesday's call.
If you're running a company where a single decision could move $100,000 — or more — you need faster access. PRO members get direct communication access to Steve for rapid feedback. Think of it as a fractional Chairman of the Board in your pocket.
When a partnership decision, a strategic pivot, a hiring dilemma, or a major investment hits your desk: you don't wait. You reach out.
Restrictions apply. PRO members receive Steve's direct contact with full permission to reach out any time. If Steve is asleep, he won't answer. Every subject is on the table. Like any program, if we determine the fit is not working, we'll politely cancel the PRO subscription. The objective is to balance true priorities — not to handle non-executive decisions you can manage independently.

9-figure operator.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a contract?+
No. We believe in value-based retention. If the Circle stops helping you grow, you should be free to leave. Cancel anytime — no further charges once your subscription expires.
How does On-Demand access work?+
PRO members receive additional contact information for urgent advisory. It's not designed for casual conversation — it's for moments when you need fast, experienced perspective.
Will Steve actually be on every call?+
Steve is on the vast majority of calls. From time to time an associate may lead a session when schedules conflict — but the core experience is Steve at the table.
What if I'm not ready yet?+
That's okay — over 60% of applicants aren't, and that's by design. Use MyMentorSteve (free, in 69 languages) and the Awesomers podcast until the stars align.
