Important note on attendance & industry representation
We try to limit conflict by restricting the number of professional members per industry. In return, we ask for consistent attendance and participation. If you miss an occasional meeting due to a conflict or emergency, we understand—please alert members with enough notice by emailing the group. If you struggle to commit consistently, C‑Suite reserves the right to expand membership for your industry and may allow another professional to become the committed member going forward.
