from growth to greatness
you’re building the big brand of tomorrow.
C*suite is where you learn how to sustain high growth while scaling a company to greatness.
Purpose-built for decision-makers.
The C*Suite Summit is a working retreat for leaders who’ve already built something real and are ready to master the next leap of growth.
Powered by data, expertise, and peer exchange, the C*Suite Summit gives leaders the strategic insights and actionable best practices to elevate good brands into great ones.
CROSSING the GROWTH chasm
The period between product-market proof and scalable enterprise is often the most precarious for a brand.
In this period, brand leaders must maintain high growth in a competitive market, while simultaneously building more complex infrastructure to sustain growth—and do it all in a capital efficient manner.
Strategy, teams, and processes must evolve rapidly, yet guidance is scarce, and the external environment remains in constant flux.
“The most relevant brand-building and M&A content I’ve seen in 20+ years of beauty—essential for any brand looking to scale toward an exit.”
Zack Zavalydriga
Board Advisor, Yellow Wood Partners
WHY C*SUITE IS DIFFERENT
Each element of the program is designed to move the conversation from abstract to actionable.
-
Operator’s Agenda
Summit content is designed to focus on the decisions that matter most—deconstructing the choices that separate brands that scale from those that stall, and translating real-world experience into actionable frameworks for growth.
-
The Best Minds
Accomplished operators with track records of scale, innovation, and leadership participate as peers—contributing insight, sharing hard-won lessons, challenging assumptions, and gaining new perspectives from others who have navigated similar inflection points.
-
Collective Intelligence
Every participating executive completes a detailed pre-summit interview. The aggregated, anonymized findings are shared as industry benchmarks—illuminating how peers are approaching growth, operational discipline, technology integration and capital allocation.
“Invaluable insights and meaningful discussions around managing an independent business through its lifecycle. Very real and applicable for the whole C-Suite.”
Jill Scalamandre
CEO, Beekman 1802
