The Excell Executive Leadership Exchange program brings together groups of company owners, presidents and CEOs to share and increase their knowledge and experience.  We form and lead these peer mentor groups, providing members with the setting and process for the exchange of experience, resources and solutions to their most challenging issues.

In a full-day meeting once each month, these executives of small and mid-sized companies serve as a "board of advisors" to work on each other's most pressing business challenges.  They also hear resource speakers address CEO-level management issues - real-time issues they must deal with today.  The setting is non-competitive, confidential and trust-based.

Excell's professional group leaders also support members with monthly one-to-one individual consultation.  They facilitate the sharing of information among members, identify quality outside resources to help deal with more critical issues, and serve as trusted confidants as needed.

Members of most Excell groups head a wide variety of companies ranging from about $3 to $100 million in annual gross sales.  We also have a similar program tailored to the needs of larger “national” firms.  Many are manufacturers and distributors, but we welcome service firms and retailers, too.  Our hundreds of members come from industries including high technology, transportation, truck building, insurance, finance, printing, metal stamping, plastics, food and beverage, importing, construction and chemicals.  The variety in every group provides a powerful cross-pollination of ideas and experience.

Excell has formed and managed CEO peer groups since 1988.  We understand business leaders.  We impact billions of dollars in commerce and have:

• Performed over 12,000 hours of one-on-one consultations with chief decision makers;

• Conducted over 900 full-day meetings of CEO peer groups;

• Developed tailored, real-time programs for each of these 900 meetings, building a regional network of resources of particular interest and value to CEOs;

• In support of individual consultations, provided thousands of support services to CEOs in the form of interventions, consultant referrals, focus groups, network meetings and information resources.

Excell currently has a major presence in the Pacific Northwest with multiple groups in Oregon, Washington, and Idaho.  Growth plans include other major and mid-sized communities throughout the country.

We are also forming a new continuous development program – ExPo – applying the principles of Excell to future leaders now below the CEO level.
