Leadership Circle

The RCGA’s Leadership Circle was formed to create added membership value by providing a unique and invigorating forum to connect executives of small, medium and large companies to the broad base of influential leaders in the St. Louis region.

Candidates for the Leadership Circle include top-ranking executives who desire to enhance their peer-to-peer networking, build relationships with other key executives and to be connected to the inner workings of the St. Louis regional business community.

Guiding Principles

The Leadership Circle, through its members, will provide opportunities for dialogue, expanding resources and relationship building. Its chief areas of concentration are to:

— Provide access to unique programs, people and events to increase awareness of regional issues of interest and initiatives

— Increase interaction among Leadership Circle members to create a more diverse, networked and united business community

— Achieve high-level recognition for Leadership Circle companies with sponsorship opportunities

— Increase the level of business investment through the support of the RCGA and its initiatives

Membership in the Leadership Circle is offered to top executives from leading for-profit regional businesses. Each member will meet several, or all, of the following requirements:

— Represents a progressive and successful company that creates value to the business community;

— Represents a variety of industries and backgrounds within the region;

— Has a desire to work in a collaborative manner with other business and civic organizations to build and strengthen the region;

— Minimum RCGA dues amount of $2,500 or fair share, whichever is greater

— Members will be encouraged to support Leadership Circle programs and to invest in regional business and civic enterprises.

Added benefits for Leadership Circle members

— Opportunities to build relationships with the top executives of small, medium and large companies and the broad base of influential St. Louis regional leaders

— Invitations to Leadership Circle President’s breakfasts to join a select group of 10 to 15 other Leadership Circle members for an informal breakfast meeting with RCGA President and CEO Dick Fleming.
