Event
CEO & CSO Roundtable
- Regular price
- $2,495.00
The CEO & CSO Roundtable Retreat is a new concept event, creating a unique venue and forum for Chief Executive Officers and Chief Strategy Officers to interact both separately and together. This small group format event will be limited to 15 CEOs and 15 CSOs. There will be sessions for CEOs and CSOs to meet separately, where each group can connect, share, and gain insights specific to their role. Then there will be sessions where we bring both groups together to discuss the connectivity and collective power of the roles in driving return on investment in their AEC firms.
Moderated by Zweig Group’s Chad Clinehens and Ying Liu, this event combines the best of both the CEO and CSO Roundtable experiences to provide attendees with valuable insights, innovative ideas, tactical frameworks/tools, and a new network of colleagues to foster effective leadership and strategic growth.
