Background

About Curtis Davis

Everyone has someone in their life who has influenced them professionally; a manager, a teacher, a mentor, a coach. I have had the great fortune of working with several mentors who guided me on my path to senior executive and CEO roles. But for many leaders, it becomes more difficult as their responsibilities grow, to identify people who are truly interested in their success, and will provide a safe environment for confidential discussions and learning, with no hidden agendas. That is why my role as a mentor, Business Consultant, Executive Coach and Peer Advisory Group Chair is so critical. I work with growth-minded CEOs and Business leaders to help them achieve breakthrough, sustainable growth, while maintaining a balanced lifestyle. I focus on three key areas with my clients and Vistage members: Learn - To learn from the experience of their peers, their own experience and the coaching, training and information that is shared through numerous platforms. Change - To change when it makes sense to do so and have the conviction to implement change within their organizations. Grow - To grow as a person first, and then as a leader. I have over 30 years of leadership experience in starting, developing and commercializing technology based businesses. I've started and lead businesses from pre-revenue to $300M. I have raised over $40M in VC and private funding and was nominated for CEO of the year by the New York Stock Exchange in 2007. I wouldn’t be where I am today without the exceptional people who helped me in my career. My focus now is to pay it forward and guide other growth mindset leaders on their paths to learn, change and grow. I am recruiting CEOs and business leaders as founding members of my Vistage Peer Advisory Group. If you have decision making responsibilities for businesses from $5M to $500M and want to work with like-minded leaders, please contact me at curt.davis@vistagechair.com to see if my group might be a fit for you.
