A varied programme of events with a rotating group of participants, designed to build and expand professional networks through mutual inspiration and the exchange of experience. Each year we organise approximately 80 events covering a wide range of topics, held in small groups of between a few and thirty participants, led by an experienced moderator.
A closed and stable group (from six to twelve leaders), built based on a common denominator—shared needs, an equivalent profile, and similar challenges. The group is engaged in a program of regular workshops and works with a special methodology aimed at helping members solve current problems, learn from each other, and develop together.
This is the basic form of CEO Round Table activity, providing participants with access to events of various formats and topics, moderated by professional coaches. The offer is prepared with CEOs, board members, and top-level management in mind. Each event is an opportunity for mutual inspiration, sharing best practices, and developing a valuable business network.
Open Forum activities are based on three principles. Firstly, the principle of confidentiality—information shared during meetings stays within the group and the meeting place. Secondly, the more you give, the more you receive. This principle makes it easy to understand how much can be gained through the sincere and open exchange of experiences. Thirdly, participants are guided by the value of respecting the opinions, expectations, and emotions of others.
Three times a year, leaders come together to tackle one clearly defined challenge – related to talent management (recruitment, retention, development) or building a culture of accountability, key areas every CEO grapples with.
The session takes the form of a morning workshop, where each participant brings their own solution and tests it against the experience of others. The format is also open to new members who want to compare their approach with the practice of seasoned CEOs.
We meet for dinner at a round table, in a group of up to 12 people, around a topic related to leadership, human capital management, or our own personal development. During the dinner, guests are asked to share their own experiences on the topic in the most authentic and genuine way possible.
Guests can prepare in advance and gather stories they’d like to share based on a questionnaire sent out beforehand. This is our flagship event, the one from which CEO Round Table began in 2001.
We meet for breakfast (in a group of up to 25 people) around a carefully selected topic addressing the current challenges of our members. Meetings take place in the morning in an exclusive and calm environment. The agenda includes networking over coffee, a short induction moment (warm-up), a presentation of a specific case for up to 20 minutes, and a Q&A session for up to 50 minutes. The official part of the meeting ends at 10:00, but guests usually enjoy staying until 10:30 to use this time for networking.
We meet for a morning walk in the park in a group of up to 12 people to share reflections and personal experiences based on an interesting video or podcast from a renowned authority. We usually start at 8:15 with coffee at Być Może café, and at 8:30 head toward the park, working in rotating pairs, which gives a broader perspective on the topic and a different way of getting to know interesting leaders. The session typically lasts up to 1.5 hours and, according to participants, is a refreshing boost of energy and inspiration for the whole workday.
This is another intimate gathering where each participant brings 3 books that have shaped who they are as a person and a leader. It’s not about reviews, but about sharing how reading influenced our development path at significant moments in our lives. This kind of conversation offers an incredible opportunity for genuine openness and getting to know the unconventional sides of leaders. The light, short format of this session (8:30–10:00) allows the day to start with full energy and joy.
This event is dedicated to all CEO Round Table members – both CEOs and CXOs – so they can reconnect and enjoy time together. We want to celebrate the “joy of sharing” – a motto we’ve stayed true to for over 20 years. That’s why a relaxed, no-pressure picnic gives us the perfect space for mutual inspiration in a safe and beautiful natural setting.
The CEO Round Table Gala brings together nearly 150 CEOs and Managing Directors leading the largest companies in Central and Eastern Europe. It is the most exclusive and unique CEO gathering in Poland. The unforgettable evening gala is a joint ascent to the peaks of the art of storytelling. The program, dedicated exclusively to CEOs, is designed to spark in-depth discussions and open up to interesting and important conversations. The meeting is an ideal opportunity for leadership development; business leaders share insights and new ideas.
Peer Group is a formula developed in 2014 for leaders from various business sectors. Within this activity, closed workshop groups are created with a stable composition, focused on the personal and professional development of engaged individuals. Each group is formed based on a common denominator connecting participants—such as similar needs, challenges, or a comparable professional profile (e.g., CEO of the CEE Region, CEO of Retail companies, women in CEO positions, etc.). The main goals of Peer Group are mutual inspiration through close relationships among participants, joint problem-solving, and addressing individual needs.
