ABOUT THE EXECUTIVE CONNECTION

Small and Medium businesses are the foundation of the New Zealand economy. Imagine the results that could be achieved if each organisation had the direct, unbiased and collective feedback from other CEOs and business executives who are dealing with similar issues.

The Executive Connection is the world's leading international network of chief executive and business owners who meet regularly in groups of 16 to share their experience, learn from expert speakers and address business issues & opportunities.

In a trusted and completely confidential setting, participants engage in candid and challenging discussions, facilitated by their TEC Chair. They share hard-earned experience and original ideas to reach better solutions.

The carefully selected and professionally trained TEC Chairs facilitate the groups and also meet privately with each TEC member for an individual one-to-one discussion following each group meeting.

TEC also presents a world class international speaker community, with the most commercially relevant speakers and topics selected to meet member requirement.

With over 1200 members in Australia and New Zealand and 15,000 members in 16 countries worldwide, The Executive Connection forms part of the world's leading CEO membership organisation, dedicated to increasing the effectiveness and enhancing the lives of Chief Executives.

TEC Chairs

Each TEC group is led by a TEC Chair with extensive business experience and the ability to act as coach and mentor for CEOs at the highest level. The majority of TEC Chairs are former CEOs themselves and understand the specific issues that business leaders face, whether running a small or large company.

The unique bond and trusting relationship that members develop with their TEC Chairs allows them to engage in candid conversations about business issues, life balance concerns and more. This singular focus on the member's specific problems results in unequalled opportunities for professional growth and greater peace of mind.

TEC Members

TEC members represent a variety of industries from manufacturing and business services to retail and not for profit organisations. Members from small and medium sized companies, the majority ranging from $2M to $200M turnover, provide a powerful exchange of ideas where entrepreneurial drive meets with hard-won experience.

TEC members are selected on the basis of their experience, willingness to contribute and their openness and have no vested interest beyond helping each other succeed.  They operate in a confidential environment for senior-level executives where each member brings objectivity, expertise, insight and candidacy to meetings, where giving is seen as more important than receiving and the rich and deep exchange that results, benefits everybody.  Members include chief executives of larger organisations, business leaders who have come up through the ranks of a family business and self-taught entrepreneurs.
