Fit matters
A Personal Board for Business Owners, CEOs and MDs
The Alchemists Circle is an ongoing confidential peer-group membership. It becomes your Personal Board: trusted people who understand the responsibility because they carry it themselves.
Your Personal Board
A room of equals
The Alchemists Circle is exclusively for Business Owners, CEOs and MDs.
You meet as equals - no hierarchy, no posturing and no selling.
Not a corporate board. Not a panel of advisers. Your inner circle: people you grow to deeply respect and would never want to let down.
- Quietly ambitious and competitive
- Professional, knowledgeable, generous and enjoyable to be with
- Value Active Time Out and complete confidentiality
- Prefer to own and implement their own change
- Believe in peer learning and collaboration
- Welcome honest challenge and accountability
- Committed to high performance
What the room is not
This is not networking
The Circle is not a room built around selling to one another, exchanging business cards or performing success. It is a confidential place to bring the decisions, challenges and opportunities that matter, alongside peers who understand the responsibility because they carry it too.

Our promise
You’ll never face the challenges alone.
It can be pressurised. There is a solitude to being an owner or leader at the top of a business. In the Circle, members meet as equals and support each other on the journey to unlock greater performance.
You have a safe space where you can talk about and work on the things that matter. You build strong, non-judgemental relationships. Your peers hold you accountable to thrive and achieve your full potential.
The Circle keeps ownership with you. It helps you see more clearly, decide with confidence and act with discipline.

Begin.
Meet Alan for a coffee.
The first step is a short, private conversation with Alan.
Tell him what has brought you to the Circle and what you are looking for from a Personal Board. Alan will explain how the Circle currently works and explore mutual fit with you.
There is no sales sequence. Your message goes directly to Alan and remains confidential.
