Advicity and a Vistage group.

What a seat asks of you

A seat in a Vistage group costs about $16,500 a year and asks for about 130 hours of your year. Vistage does not publish its price and figures vary by group; treat these as approximate.

If you are in a group that works, stay in it. This page is not an argument against it.

The people who never join

Far more leaders never sit in a room like that. The money is real. So are the hours, on someone else’s calendar, on top of a business and a family that already take everything you have. So the decisions get made alone, and nobody ever asks how they turned out.

That is who Advicity is built for.

What a group gives you that we do not

Other people who have lived your problem, sitting across the table. A room that knows your face. We do not pretend a private board is that, and some people will want both.

What your board gives you that a room does not

• Any hour. Consult your board at eleven at night, the day the decision actually lands, not at the next meeting.
• Complete privacy. Your board is invisible to every other member. Nothing you bring is heard by a competitor, a peer or a friend of a friend.
• The record. Every decision is written down, dated and judged. A year in, you can see when you were right, when you were wrong, and when you overruled good advice.
• All of your life, not just the business. Money, work, body, people and mind, from advisors who each keep their own memory of you.

The choice most leaders face is not a group or a board. It is a board or nothing at all.
