Vistage UK

Vistage UK Vistage is improving the effectiveness and enhancing the lives of business leaders by bringing successful people together in private advisory groups.

In a Vistage group, about a dozen executives meet once a month to discuss their challenges, evaluate opportunities and solve an assortment of strategic, operational and sometimes personal issues. Put twelve or so high performing business executives in a room and the potential is enormous. The role of a Vistage Chair is to ensure that every bit of experience and wisdom is applied in each Vistage me

eting. Our Chairs are accomplished leaders (many are former MDs or CEOs). They are part facilitator, part coach and are committed to the success of their group members. To maintain the momentum that group meetings provide, Vistage members are also supported by one-to-one coaching, access to leading expert speakers, bespoke best practice materials and an online community of 19,000 members worldwide.

Chairs from across the UK and Ireland came together to explore this year's theme, How to Flourish in an Uncertain World. The agenda featured six peer-led conversations on effective Chair practice, recruitment, group engagement and leadership impact, shaped by insights from Chairs and informed by data from the global Vistage community.

Through shared experiences and honest, practical discussion, our Chairs left with fresh ideas, new perspectives and renewed confidence to take back to their groups. Thank you for making it such a valuable few days.

Key insights, presentations and session highlights are now available, covering group growth, issue processing, coaching effectiveness and recruitment.

And for your diaries: National Chair Meeting 2027 takes place 22 to 24 June.

Events like this are a reminder of just how strong the Vistage community is. The generosity, openness and shared commitment of our Chairs is what makes it so special, and we are proud to be part of it.

Why one sceptical CEO became a Vistage believer

When Fiona McKenzie stepped into the CEO role of marketing agency Revere, she'd never done the job before. She was sceptical that leaders from outside her industry could help, but that diversity of experience became exactly what challenged her thinking and brought the perspective she valued most.

Over the years, her peer group became a sounding board through tough decisions and, ultimately, the sale of her business. "It can be lonely at the top," she says, but the honest feedback and human connection helped her grow as a leader.

The value of Vistage? Fiona puts it simply: a group of incredible people you can call on, and access to expertise that helps you navigate whatever's around the corner.
