Building Business through Relationships

Seasoned. Professional. Dedicated to helping others.

That’s the kind of member you’ll find in The Executives Guild.

But with so many networking organizations throughout the Chicago area to choose from, you’re probably thinking, “Why should I join this group?”

Get Ready to Learn, Share, and Grow

Our membership is diverse by design. This means you’ll have access to a range of resources for your clients, for yourself, and for your business. And with exclusivity in your specialty (we promise this as part of your membership), you can focus on getting to know everyone— not worrying that you’ll be in direct competition with another member.

Education is paramount. Many meetings include a presentation by one or more members. You’ll learn the “why” of their business and walk away with information you can share with your network and audience. (And yes, you’ll have the opportunity to share your story, too.) A few times each year we also bring in guest speakers to share their insights and expertise about business growth, networking, the selling process, etc. 

Your input is encouraged at all times. Our Board has an open-door policy. If you have ideas you’d like to share with the Board, you’re welcome to attend part of our meetings. In addition, we want your feedback on a regular basis—about the location of our meetings (it changes every month), the size of our membership, our monthly e-newsletter, you name it.

If you think you’re a good fit for the Executives Guild, we’d love to learn about your business as well as answer your questions about our organization. To start the process, please contact us:
