Every other seat in your company has support. Why not yours?

What C12 Seattle North is

C12 is the world's largest network of Christian business owners and leaders, meeting monthly in confidential peer advisory forums. C12 Seattle North is the local expression of that community, serving CEOs and business owners along the I-5 corridor in the north Puget Sound who want to lead thriving businesses with eternal purpose. The national organization at joinC12.com is worth exploring for the research behind the model, the curriculum our forums run on, and member stories from other markets.

C12 isn't another business group, and it's not a networking event. Each month, members meet for a full day to work on their businesses together: learning from one another, applying biblical truth to real challenges, and receiving accountability from peers who understand the weight of leadership.

The C12 mission is to equip Christian CEOs and business owners to build great businesses for a greater purpose.

How it is different from Vistage, EO, YPO, or C3 Leaders

Secular peer groups can sharpen your business, and many of our members have belonged to one. The difference is the foundation. Where secular groups optimize for performance, C12 integrates timeless biblical wisdom as the basis for decisions across your business, your family, and your ministry. We believe those aren't three separate lives to balance. They are one life, stewarded for one Owner.

Closer to home, the question I hear most is: "Is this like C3 Leaders?" The names are similar, the region overlaps, and the core conviction is shared: Christian leaders were not meant to lead alone. I am glad C3 exists, and many Puget Sound leaders have been well served by its Jesus-centered peer groups and events. The difference is the kind of room each one builds. C3 gathers business and professional leaders broadly, in peer-led small groups. C12 is a chaired peer advisory board built exclusively for CEOs and business owners of established companies: a professionally facilitated full working day each month, a proprietary business curriculum, one-on-one coaching, an annual 360 review of your business, and a full-time Chair whose entire vocation is your forum. If C3 is a community for Christian leaders, C12 is a board of directors for your company and your calling. Some leaders belong in both rooms.

What a month looks like

One full day, once a month, with a group of non-competing CEOs and business owners, facilitated by your Chair. A typical forum day includes prayer, a working session in the C12 curriculum, deep peer processing of one member's key issue, accountability on last month's commitments, and a concrete 30-day action plan. Between meetings you get a one-on-one coaching session with your Chair, plus full access to C12's library of tools and templates.

Each year you also step back for a Core Business Presentation: a structured 360 review where the room pressure-tests your business, your leadership, and your key decisions. And when you travel, proxy access lets you join any of C12's 600+ forums around the world.
