How should I prepare for my first group meeting?

Zoe Zsido, our Membership & Events Manager, will contact you, along with the rest of the group, as soon as contracts are in place with the hotel you’ll stay in during your meeting. From there you’ll book your hotel and arrange transportation to get to the meeting. We encourage you to check with your facilitator for previous meeting topics, and to review the websites or social media pages of your group to get a head start on getting to know your peers! You will also receive an initial meeting agenda and itinerary 1 month prior to your meeting.

What are the benefits to being a PEG Member?

What do the bi-annual Peer Group meetings look like? What is the time commitment?

Our group meetings are held twice a year in whatever city the group chooses, with members rotating as hosts. Over the course of the two day meeting the group covers a variety of topics: People, Marketing, Financial Benchmarking, Strategic Planning, Emerging Markets, etc. The group will also tour the host’s facility gaining valuable insights and offering suggestions. In addition to the meeting, the group also participates in group dinners and other bonding activities. PEG provides a professional facilitator and all of the administration needed to prepare for the meeting. Outside of the bi-annual meetings, most of our groups actively participate in monthly meet-up calls.
