Your Seat at the Table: How to Create and Run Your Own Peer Advisory Council

by Tina Corner-Stolz Narrated by Lanessa Tremblett

Overview

Tina Corner - Stolz has been driven by one mission for almost two decades: creating such an exquisite Member Experience (MX) for her peer advisory councils (PaCs) that, year after year, members wouldn't think twice about renewing. And she succeeded.

A veteran of the peer group industry who sold her franchise for the highest multiple ever recorded and has trained and mentored hundreds, Tina cracked the code for MX as well as for how to skillfully moderate PaCs. She's been teaching other driven entrepreneurs her formula for success through her Peer Advisory Council Academy since 2019, and now she shares her secrets in Your Seat at the Table: How to Create and Run a Peer Advisory Council.

The peer group space is competitive while being fraught with confusing terminology and lacking in organization and standards. As Tina says, it's still in the “Wild-West stage.” If you're going to attempt to navigate this precarious terrain, you'll need a guide who can help you avoid some of the most common mistakes and missteps.

Your Seat at the Table: How to Create and Run a Peer Advisory Council is a how-to book that combines Tina's deep knowledge and experience, along with cautionary tales and tales of triumph. And she does it all in an easy-to-read style that demystifies the jargon and presents everything you need to know, do, and decide, step by step, before you sign your first member and all the way through to selling your profitable business or winding it down.

Tina Corner - Stolz will show you why your seat at the table - the moderator's seat - is key to creating a level of experience for your members that's incomparable. And she'll tell you who else and what else you need for your PaC business to be pr profitable. If you're someone who doesn't want to reinvent the wheel, this book is for you.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

As much as we can have all the right pieces in place to scale a business, the tipping point of success relies on a leader's ability to see beyond the curve and get ahead of that. We like to think we can do this alone, but as with any healthy, growing business, we reach that point quicker and stronger when we open ourselves up to the insights and advice of our peers. The concept of the Peer Advisory Council is what the Entrepreneurs Organization (EO) is based on and to anyone looking to build their own PaC, I would tell them to first, pick up a copy of Tina Corner-Stolz' Your Seat at the Table. From refining the vision for your company to forming successful meetings, Corner-Stolz breaks down the steps of building a powerful PaC that can rocket your business lightyears ahead of the curve.

Entrepreneurial business owners have a lonely life. All actions and decisions in the business will ultimately turn into the Entrepreneur’s consequence. Peer groups are a great resource to reduce the loneliness and increase confidence. However, a peer group without great structure and guidance turns into best practices sharing. Best practices can be a death nail in the modern fast moving world. Your Seat at The Table is the perfect guide to maximizing peer group success and building an entrepreneur’s confidence.
