SOAR ALONG WITH YOUR BUSINESS

IT’S A SUCCESS GROUP, NOT A SUPPORT GROUP.

Confidential group meetings provide a safe and stimulating environment to accelerate personal and professional growth. Members work together with the help of a professionally trained and accomplished Chair to give feedback and find creative solutions. It’s like having your own personal board of advisors.

BUSINESS IS ALWAYS PERSONAL.

One-to-one coaching is a critical element to achieving high levels of success. During these individual sessions with their Chair, members become increasingly accountable for overcoming personal and professional barriers.

2 STEP INTO A NETWORK THAT WRAPS THE GLOBE.

Global membership helps members expand their business network through the power of our global affiliation with Vistage International. This network gives TEC members a gateway to a worldwide community of nearly twenty thousand passionate business leaders.

GLIMPSE

TEC Canada focuses on personal transformation, leadership excellence and enterprise success. Every member participates in a group, composed of up to 16 diverse, trusted peers and chaired by an accomplished leader.

Members participate in one of five TEC peer advisory groups: Chief Executive, Key Executive, Small Business, Sage or Inside. Designed to meet the distinct needs of leaders at all stages of their learning and growth, we take great care to match our members to the right peer group by considering

organizational size and stage of development. Groups meet regularly to interact with a steady stream of business experts and draw on the first-hand experience of their peers, exchanging direct, honest feedback to hold one another accountable and advocate success. Members also meet with their Chair individually to explore personal goals and accelerate action plans.

We’ve carefully crafted our integrated learning model over 50 years of trial and error, so you can bank on the results.
