Melbourne SME Chiefs set to get a little help from their friends

Announcement posted by The Executive Connection (TEC) Pty Ltd 26 May 2011

Unique executive program continues to keep CEOs and their businesses at the top of their game.

As the chief executive, everyone sees you as having to have all of the answers all of the time; sometimes making you feel overwhelmed and isolated. However, participation in peer group mentoring programs can help you avoid isolation and can keep you and your business at the top of the game.

Melbourne-based peer mentoring and coaching membership organisation, The Executive Connection (TEC), provides a confidential forum for vibrant business leaders to gain the support needed to give their businesses the edge. Members participate in ongoing peer think-tanks, one-to-one business coaching sessions, and regular speaker workshops in an effort to harness the knowledge and experience of their ‘TEC group’ to outperform their competitors.

Harvey Martin chairs a group of CEOs from larger SMEs from a diverse range of industries who are keen to grow themselves and their businesses to become significantly more successful, have less stress in their lives and improve their personal relationships. Harvey says “TEC is not a hospital, it’s a gym. It’s where CEOs go to grow, outperform their competitors, and learn how to live a more balanced and effective life.”

Harvey believes that his fully integrated, ongoing program is best suited for experienced leaders, in established organisations, who are not satisfied with the status quo and are stimulated by an entrepreneurial spirit that drives them to always be looking at 'what next' to grow their companies, whether that be cutting edge technology or out of the box management strategies.

TEC is best understood when meeting the people who are involved in bringing that experience to life; where serious business leaders are open to learning from the experience of their peers, gaining fresh insights from expert speakers, and see the benefit in being held accountable and focused by a skilled business mentor.

Harvey is hosting a lunch for chief executives on Thursday, 16 June 2011 and a breakfast on Friday, 24 June 2011 in Melbourne. Guests will have the opportunity to network with other like-minded leaders and directly experience the benefits members receive from a TEC group meeting. Places are limited, so please email TEC to reserve your place.
