Should I get a say on who is in my peer group?

When looking to join/take part in a CEO Peer group, it's important to remember that you get to choose who your peers are and, even more importantly, who they are not.

The three reasons why you should get a say on who is in your peer group:

1️⃣ to ensure there is no conflict of interest to preserve openness and a safe haven for all discussions.
2️⃣ to endorse that the new member is truly a peer and at the same level as you.
3️⃣ to create a sense of ownership to help find and vet the very best fits for your group.

The value you receive from being a member will be elevated when the culture of the group embodies these three characteristics. So remember to choose your peer group wisely.
