Leadership can be isolating. especially when the decisions get heavier and the answers aren’t always clear.
That’s why having the right people around you matters.
Vistage Worldwide Chair Marc Blais, CPA shares an important perspective on the value of having a confidential space to think out loud, challenge your assumptions and work through the decisions that come with leadership.
Sometimes better decisions start with having the right conversation.

Five years with TEC220 🎉
Congratulations to Nick Boragina on this milestone! From learning alongside fellow CEOs to building lasting friendships, Nick’s experience is a great example of what makes peer advisory so valuable.
Thank you to Nick, Chair Paul Hunt, and the entire TEC220 group for continuing to build such a supportive community of leaders. Here’s to the next five!

Peer groups create space to step outside the day-to-day, challenge your thinking, share what’s working (and what isn’t), and learn alongside leaders who understand the realities of being in the seat.
A great example of that in action this week at Auberge du Lac Taureau, with Vistage Worldwide, Inc. Chair Guy Tousignant bringing the group together for a creative, productive —and very fun session.
Great photo, Marilyn Barefoot ! Thanks for sharing a glimpse into the group. 👏

Lots to look forward to in 2027, with Louis-Samuel Jacques already building an incredible speaker lineup!
From enterprise value and executive branding to finding your why, negotiation and leadership development, there’s no shortage of great conversations ahead.
Pictured with Louis-Samuel is speaker Andrea Steinbrenner, who joined his group to share her expertise on preparing for the sale of a company.
We’re excited for the fresh perspectives, ideas and insights still to come!

A little look inside a recent TEC / Vistage Worldwide Inc. meeting with Chair Ed Hansen 👏
This group has spent years learning together, getting to know each other’s businesses and having the conversations that come with that trust.
This month, they were joined by Louis-Samuel Jacques for a session on TIME — with plenty to take back to their teams and businesses.
Great people, great conversations, and apparently some very serious socks. 🧦
Are we experiencing an emotional recession? 🤔
As AI continues to advance, the skills that make us uniquely human are becoming more important… not less.
In Part One of this three-part TEC Cast, Jamie Cohen sits down with Jillian Bauming McLaughlin to talk about emotional intelligence in business, why global EQ and wellbeing are declining, and what leaders can do to build their emotional fitness.
It starts with self-awareness: recognizing what you’re feeling, naming it, and understanding how those emotions influence the way you lead. From mindfulness and emotional check-ins to empathy and active listening, small practices can make a meaningful difference.
Because in a rapidly changing workplace, the ability to connect, understand and lead with empathy may be one of our greatest advantages.
Stay tuned for Parts Two and Three of the conversation.

Sometimes the most impactful thing you can do as a leader, a colleague, or a friend is simply show up.
In this TEC Cast, Susan Motkaluk joins Jamie Mason Cohen to explore the growing reality of loneliness and why genuine human connection matters more than ever. Whether it's making time for a conversation, checking in with someone, or creating spaces where people feel they belong, showing up has the power to change someone's day and sometimes, much more than that.
Because connection isn't built through grand gestures. It's built through consistency, presence, and choosing to be there. 🎙️
