Testimonials
Mark Parrott
Knowing Ira Warren has raised my game as a business leader. When we first met, I was a fledgling speaker on the subject of corporate strategy. I can now proudly tell you I speak to more than 1200 CEOs a quarter. I owe this growth in no small part to my association with Ira, who consistently challenged me to raise my game all while providing counsel for when I was on the rail’s vs off the rails. My favorite “Ira-ism” is “when the student is ready the teacher appears”. Ira’s first-hand knowledge of how to recover from near catastrophe to create extreme valuation in private business will prove invaluable in this next decade as more companies will change hands than ever before in American history. Do yourself and your business a favor and get to know Ira because after a certain level of development the only way to grow is to surround yourself with better business owners.

I have been a member of Vistage for about two and half years now. In that time our company has tripled in size. We do not believe we could have done this without the help of our Vistage team and Vistage Chair, Ira Warren. Ira and the team have helped us learn to scale the business, how to make better financial decisions and most importantly helped us create a vision for where we want to take the company along with how we want to exit. Ira is a very knowledgeable, persistent, and caring person who is always willing to help. He has made a tremendous difference in how we think about our business and always holds us accountable for where we want to go.

As small business owners we are tasked with making small and large decisions alike on a regular basis. Since I have joined Vistage I no longer make large business decisions without at least getting input from my peer CEOs. Each member in the group, along with our Vistage chair bring a unique perspective and set of experiences; their input and advice have changed the way that I approach my business and make decisions. Vistage has been an accelerant to our business growth since I first joined the group.
