Renaissance Executive Forums bring together top executives from similarly sized, non-competing companies with an advisory board process in which thousands of chief executives throughout the world participate. These CEOs, presidents and owners meet once a month in small groups of approximately eight to fourteen individuals. The meetings provide an environment designed to address the opportunities and challenges they face as individuals and leaders of their respective organizations. This unique business opportunity allows franchisees to help others without the intense travel and transient nature that traditional coaching and consulting generally entail.
