The higher you climb, the lonelier it gets. CEOs and C-Suite executives carry weighty decisions that can define the future of companies. Tech executives grapple with a disruption that never seems to slow down. Aspiring leaders step into high-stakes environments where confidence and influence can make or break careers.
Yet the leaders who consistently win big share a common advantage: they don’t try to do it alone.
They invest in their networks. They surround themselves with trusted peers. And they lean into the power of masterminding.
Why Networks Matter More at the Top
At mid to large companies, competitive advantage doesn’t come from tools alone—it comes from people.
- A CEO who tests a high-stakes decision with peers avoids millions in missteps.
- A tech executive who hears how another company solved a scaling problem accelerates their own growth.
- An aspiring leader who learns to practice vulnerability in a safe setting gains the confidence to lead authentically.
This is the multiplier effect of Executive Coaching, Tech Leadership, and Collaboration—but amplified through a mastermind.
What Makes the Executive Tech Circle Different
That’s why I built the Executive Tech Circle: a mastermind where CEOs, senior executives, and aspiring leaders come together to sharpen each other, challenge assumptions, and create growth they couldn’t achieve alone. We meet in the San Francisco Bay area, online, and at several other locations.
Inside the circle, you’ll find:
- Candid conversations about wins and defeats. Leaders share what worked and what didn’t—without filters.
- A culture of vulnerability where strength is measured not by posturing, but by openness.
- Tools to build influence and collaboration, sharpening how you lead boards, teams, and stakeholders.
- Accountability that transforms vision into execution—because ideas without action go nowhere.
This isn’t networking for the sake of business cards. It’s not another leadership workshop. The Executive Tech Circle is where high-stakes leadership meets real peer support.
Proof It Works
One senior executive who worked with me described it this way:
“Mahesh’s coaching and group approach helped me uncover blind spots I didn’t even know existed. The combination of vulnerability, accountability, and strategy made me a stronger leader—both in confidence and in influence.”
When peers hold up the mirror, growth accelerates.
The Bay Area Advantage
The San Francisco Bay Area is more than a tech hub—it’s the beating heart of global innovation. Bringing leaders together here creates a mastermind environment unlike any other. Whether you’re scaling a global enterprise, leading through AI transformation, or stepping into higher leadership, the Executive Tech Circle offers a rare space to pause, reflect, and accelerate forward.
The Invitation
The CEOs and executives who thrive don’t just rely on their own experience; they tap into the wisdom of others. And aspiring leaders who want to fast-track their growth step into circles where they can learn from those ahead of them.
If you’re ready to gain clarity, confidence, influence, and collaboration—and to put yourself in the company of peers who will challenge and support you—the Executive Tech Circle is your next step.
