Pepperwood is a membership organization made up of established businesses and startup companies. The membership is made up of owners, presidents, and CEOs of entrepreneurial, privately owned, or public companies.
Pepperwood, along with its partners and associates, has created a new and innovative system for helping small and middle market sized companies achieve solid and lasting growth. The system begins with a half-day workshop, delivered by a Professional Turnaround Practitioner, to 15-25 attendees. Through the application of well-established business techniques focused on operational optimization, conservative financial structures, and attention to strategic decision making, Pepperwood members achieve a high level of success in maintaining and growing their companies through good times and bad.
A key ingredient in the Pepperwood system is assigning a board of directors of 8–12 other business owners to assist the member in achieving his or her goals. This is what we call a “Power Board”. The difference between a Power Board and a traditional board of directors is simple. While a traditional board of directors is made up of bankers, lawyers, accountants, or even family members, a Power Board is made up of other business owners or CEO who do not have a vested interest in your company or compete with you in any way. What makes this powerful is that the board is made up of individuals who know how to run a business from experience, not from a book, school, or certificate program. Real business men and women sharing real business experience, ideas, and networks.
