What if your greatest work is still ahead?
The largest peer advisory network for Christian CEOs is looking for its next generation of Chairs.
20 minutes. No pitch.
Just a conversation about what’s next.
You didn't build a career by accident.
You built it by showing up, solving what others couldn’t, and carrying weight most people never see. Now you’re asking a different question. Not “how do I grow this” but “what do I do with everything I’ve built. Not restlessness born of failure. Restlessness born of a role that’s still good, and still isn’t enough anymore.
That’s the moment C12 Chairs are built for.
Largest peer advisory organization for Christian CEOs
AARON BANKS
C12 Chair,
Central Texas
This is likely you if:
- You’ve held the CEO, President, Founder, or C-suite seat, with real P&L ownership.
- You have 10+ years of senior leadership behind you.
- You’re transitioning out of running a company, not still building one full time.
- You’re tired of keeping your faith in a separate room from your work.
- You want the next chapter to outlast you.
This isn't a volunteer role. It's your next company.
- You lead a forum of Christian CEOs in your market, full time.
- You deliver world-class curriculum built and maintained by C12 HQ, so you’re not building content from scratch.
- You provide ongoing 1:1 coaching to your members between sessions.
- You own and operate your Chair franchise.
- Your effort, your equity, your income.
- You’re backed by a global support system: training, marketing, systems, and a community of 250+ Chairs who’ve done this before you.
