Now Forming — Founding Seats Open

CEO Group II — San Antonio

The first CEO group filled. CEO Group II is the response. Founding seats are open now and applications are being reviewed.

Who It’s For

Founding members set the standard.

CEO Group II does not have a full roster yet. That is the opportunity. The CEOs who join now influence who else gets in, how the group operates, and what it becomes. The first group filled because the model works. This is the expansion of that model – with founding seats available right now for executives who qualify and move quickly.

  • CEO, president, or business owner with $5M or more in annual revenue
  • Ready to commit to the monthly cadence before the group reaches full strength
  • Interested in helping shape the culture of a new group from day one
  • Willing to be direct, challenged, and accountable to peers
  • No industry conflicts – screened before acceptance
  • Based in San Antonio or the surrounding metro area

★★★★★
“I highly recommend Jason Straughan as a leadership coach and mentor. His wisdom and guidance have profoundly impacted my personal and professional growth. Jason has helped me gain clarity and confidence in my leadership role—not just in my business but also in my family and life. Through his coaching, I’ve developed a stronger strategic mindset and a more intentional approach to leadership. His insights challenge me to think beyond the immediate and focus on long-term success.

FAQ

Questions we hear most.

What does it mean to be a founding member?
Founding members join before the group reaches capacity. They have more influence over who else gets accepted and more ownership over the norms and culture the group develops. Most founding members describe their original cohort as the most significant professional relationships they have built as a CEO.
How is CEO Group II different from the existing CEO Group?
Same program, same Chair, same Vistage framework. Different people. Two groups means no indefinite waitlist. If you qualify and the timing is right, you choose which group fits.
How much time does membership require?
One full-day group meeting per month and one private session with Jason. Most members describe it as the highest-leverage time they invest each month.
What does membership cost?
Membership investment is covered directly during the initial call. It is a serious commitment and a serious return.
