It is a powerful advantage, and access to this community is reserved exclusively for TEC members. What we offerThe Executive Connection (TEC) is an international membership organisation which provides ongoing learning and development for chief executives, managing directors and business owners who meet with their peers for a day each month, in a confidential and supportive group. HistoryTEC began in 1957 when a businessman, Robert Nourse, met with four chief executives to test a simple but revolutionary idea—by sharing their knowledge and experience, they could help each other get better results for their businesses. Soon this group of businessmen was asking questions and making suggestions. They challenged each other, working together to solve issues and to grow as a business leader. In that moment, TEC was born. Find out more about TEC ChairsEach TEC group is managed by a TEC Chair with wide business experience and the ability to act as coach and counselor for CEOs at the highest level. The majority of TEC Chairs are former CEOs who understand the special issues which CEOs face, whether running a small company or large, public or private, local or international. A TEC Chair has two major responsibilities. The first is to act as a leader and facilitator for the meeting day. The second is to meet with each member every month for a one-to-one review. Together, the chair and member identify key issues and opportunities, and they focus on the priorities for each member and his or her 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 issues results in unequalled opportunities for professional growth and greater peace of mind.Find out more about our Chairs Interested in becoming a TEC Chair?Are you a leader of leaders?
