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 meeting. 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.

Most organisations say they welcome change. Far fewer are built for it.
That gap is what we’ll be digging into on the morning of 3 November, when Conrad Ford, Chief Product & Strategy Officer at Allica Bank, opens the day with “Building organisations that thrive on change: lessons from the UK’s fastest-growing company.”

Growth at that pace doesn’t happen by accident, and it doesn’t happen by simply working harder. It usually means someone has made deliberate choices about how decisions get made, how quickly people can act, and what the business is willing to stop doing. As Chief Strategy Officer, Conrad is well placed to talk about exactly those choices, and they’re the ones most of us find hardest to change in our own teams.

If you’re joining us, come with a question about something you’ve struggled to shift. We’ll share the key takeaways from the session afterwards for those who can’t be there.

We’re proud to be featured in Elite Business with our commentary on the 2026 Autumn Budget.

The article explores what the Budget means for small business owners, founders, and the self-employed. After two years of heavy tax rises aimed at business owners, this is a calmer Budget, and it offers some welcome support. The pressure from earlier changes remains, though.

Business leaders make better decisions when they understand the landscape they’re leading in. We’re glad to contribute our perspective to that conversation.

We’re delighted to welcome Dixon AI as our Official AI Partner for The Listening Tour.

We are delighted to announce that Crowd Comms is our Official Event Technology Partner for The Listening Tour, and they’ll be with us at The Listening Tour: Manchester on 3rd November.

This isn’t a one-off. They’re supporting the tour as a whole, so you’ll get the same smooth experience at each stop. Here’s what that means for you on the day:

Walk in and get going. Self-service kiosks print your badge in seconds, so you spend your first few minutes talking to people rather than queuing.

Everything in your pocket. The event app puts the agenda, speakers and fellow attendees in one place, so you can plan your day and find the people you most want to meet.

The Listening Tour: Manchester is a day with CEOs and business owners who are facing the same decisions you are, and who will tell you honestly what has and hasn’t worked for them. The technology is there to get out of the way and make those conversations easier.

See you in Manchester on 3rd November

Some people hold a room. Brad builds one.

We’re delighted that Brad Waldron will be our host for the day. As host, he’ll set the tone from the first minute and keep the conversation moving, so ideas turn into exchanges rather than sitting on a slide.

Brad is a renowned keynote speaker, strategist and executive coach. His background in international trade and his competitive athlete’s mindset shape a focus on results that show up quickly and can be measured. He has worked with global brands including Microsoft, Sony and Warner Bros, and was named OutPerformer of the Year by Vistage International. He is the author of Present Naked and is currently writing The Leadership Battery.

Our Chairs and members already know the energy he brings. Please join us in giving him the welcome he deserves.

Meet the Thought Leader Strategic Partners joining the Vistage Listening Tour on 3 November

On 3 November, the Vistage Listening Tour comes to Manchester, and we’re bringing some of our Thought Leader Strategic Partners with us.

They work alongside CEOs and business leaders every day. They see what’s keeping leaders up at night, and they’ll be in the room to listen, share what they’re seeing, and help shape what comes next.

Come with the questions you’re wrestling with right now, and the ones you’re not sure how to ask yet. The best conversations happen when leaders put ego aside and say what’s really on their mind.

The Budget lands on 28 October. Then what?

Headlines tell you what the Chancellor announced. They rarely tell you what it means for your business in 2027.

That is why on 3 November, Vistage Economic Advisor Joe Nellis CBE, will be giving a live Economic Update built for the people who have to make the decisions. With the dust settled and the detail digested, you’ll get a considered view rather than a first reaction.

With growth subdued, inflation stubborn and global uncertainty rising, the questions are big ones:
- Will growth recover?
- How quickly will inflation fall, and where are interest rates heading?
- What do public finances, taxation and borrowing mean for the wider economy?
- And what does all of that mean for your confidence, your investment plans and your people?

If you lead an SME anywhere in the North of England, this is for you. Come and hear a clear, evidence-based view of the risks, the opportunities and the honest uncertainties.
