MEETINGS & EVENTS

Regular General Monthly Meetings
Regular general monthly meetings of the 150 CEO Council Members are usually on the second Thursdays of each month, 7-9AM, at the Centre Club.  These meetings are for networking at the highest level and include an hour of professional development with a cutting-edge speaker on a wide range of topics.

Roundtables
Roundtables are a format in which 10-15 of the same members (in non-competing businesses) get together monthly to discuss one or two of the members' hottest issues or problems, with the help of a group of peers, in a completely confidential and safe environment.  There are currently five roundtables, which are held: third Tuesdays of every month at noon at Bay Cities Bank; fourth Thursdays of every month at 7:45-9:30AM at the Centre Club; and third Fridays of every month from 7:45-9:30AM at the Centre Club. For more information or to join a Roundtable if you are a member and not currently in one and would like to be, call 813-258-5999.

R-Nights
R-Nights are a "Happy Hour" concept, usually on the first Tuesdays of every other month, 5:30-7:30pm, at varying locations. Members need not make reservations.  "No agendas, no formalities and no solicitation" is the rule.  It's a casual, fun night for members-only to get together.

R-Groups
Members are encouraged to get to know members, and to host them at their place of business.  With assistance from the CEO Council office, a member may choose a date, time and place to host their gathering, and select invitees.  A fun and PERSONAL topic is up for discussion, guaranteed to help members get to know each other as something more than their CEO titles!

Board Meetings 
The business of the CEO Council organization is conducted by a Board of Directors for the benefit of the membership, usually on the first Thursdays of every other month, 7:45-9:00AM, Centre Club. Members who would like an issue discussed by the Board are encouraged to call 813-258-5999 and "lay it on the line."  

Other Events
There are two "Socials" a year - outings with spouses, and sometimes whole families, for entertainment and casual fun. There is also an annual spring Golf Outing for members to take a day and enjoy sporting competition and cameraderie.  We also partake in co-sponsorships with other organizations on events with interesting topics, on occasion, for the benefit of our members.
