Private CEO working circles
We curate informal councils of experienced operators, investors, and regional leaders so a CEO can refine ideas in a trusted setting, well before formal board discussions.
Our model is simple: we convene the right council, facilitate the session, and deliver a decision-ready brief.
Formal board prep tends to compress viewpoints. Our councils expand them. We assemble 6 to 8 peers who have lived the exact scenario, then guide a focused conversation that surfaces blind spots, alternative routes, and risk trade-offs.
Every session ends with a board-ready narrative, clear decision options, and a recommended next step. See how the circles are curated.
All engagements are structured in MYR and scoped for confidential CEO use. Pricing reflects the depth of council curation and the time required for preparation.
One 90-minute facilitated session with a curated peer group to stress-test a strategic idea.

Two facilitated workshops to explore alternative paths, downside protection, and stakeholder reactions.

violet-leaf operates by designing invitation-only councils for CEOs. We source qualified advisors, align them on the scenario, facilitate the conversation, and deliver a decision brief. Revenue comes from fixed-fee session packages and optional narrative production.
