CEN & SEN History
In 1990, the Chief Executive Network was founded by Dr. Ronald E. Wiley. In 1994, Bob Grabill acquired the Chief Executive Network and introduced the Senior Executive Network. Since that time, CEN & SEN have conducted over 350 membership meetings and have hosted 15 conferences.
CEN & SEN Organization
Our organization is structured into two networks (CEN & SEN) that comprise six industry sectors (manufacturing, wholesale/distribution, architectural, engineering, electrical and mechanical contracting, and technology software). Within these sectors there are eighteen different groups: eight tailored for CEO’s and ten tailored for senior executives.
CEN & SEN Membership
CEN and SEN group members attend two to four membership meetings yearly, approximately six months apart. Members are placed in industry specific, revenue compatible, noncompetitive groups for sharing innovative ideas, problem solving, and best practices.
CEN is not a professional trade or political organization, and the information available at the meetings cannot be found anywhere else. Our focus on best practices and benchmarking gives our membership a true competitive edge in their marketplace.
CEN & SEN Membership Dues
CEN and SEN have an annual membership due that is based upon the member’s company’s gross revenue from the previous fiscal year—generally dues are between $2,250 and $3,250.
In addition, there is a onetime membership application fee of $750. This application fee includes your first meeting as a prospective member. |
