Job Description

Former CEO – Peer Advisor Team & Executive Coach

Are you a former Business Owner/CEO? Restless or experiencing smoldering discontent? Still feel like you have something to build and/or contribute? Want to build something with impact & enduring value?

Acumen is looking for a proven successful former CEO/business owner that is a high performer, who can attract influential leaders in their community by providing executive coaching and peer advisory and services for a faith-based for-profit organization.

We're looking for:

• Former Business Owner, CEO, or President (where the company had at least $3M in revenue and 10 employees)
• A desire to transition from success to significance - creating value and impact is important while experiencing an economic benefit
• "Sat in the Seat" leader expertise driving growth & profitability
• A significant and robust professional network
• Be humble, hungry, and smart (EQ, not IQ)
• A mature and strong Christian faith foundation – there are a lot of ways to do business and make decisions, and we believe that our faith should guide them.

About Acumen
Acumen is an exclusive community that helps Owners, CEOs, and Executives grow their top line, optimize their bottom line, and enrich their storyline.

We do that by placing CEOs and owners in advisory Councils of non-competing business peers with similar characteristics, revenue, employee count, locations, and demographics.

This approach combines the benefits of an advisory board and a peer mastermind team and is personally led by an experienced entrepreneur and former CEO, who we call a Growth Catalyst.

That’s where you come in. Are you a Growth Catalyst?

What is a Growth Catalyst?
Catalyst: an agent that provokes or speeds significant change or action.

A Growth Catalyst is a former business owner or CEO with the talent and ability to provide guidance and connection to C Level Leadership. Your past experience sitting in the seat of owning or leading a company has given you battle scars and pathways to help others. You are the transformational agent that helps a team of leaders drive growth in people, performance, profit, and person.

The Acumen Platform
During start-up up you will be responsible for hunting and attracting new business owners. You must be able to get out of your office and out from in front of your computer to create opportunities and connect to those that will be a part of your team. After startup and building your team of CEOs and Owners, you will lead monthly half-day Council meetings and then connect 1:1 for executive coaching. Quarterly you’ll attend our Advance Leadership Workshop, and annually facilitate a team retreat called Outbound. While independent, Growth Catalysts work together as a team of teams in your city to sharpen, challenge, and inspire others.

Acumen Is Your Partner

• Investing together: We offer entrepreneurs the opportunity for lucrative recurring revenue potential (to clarify, this is not a salaried position).
• You are investing in a business platform and economic engine that creates a rhythm of service, deep relationships, and engagement to “stay in the game.”
• Team, Tools, and Resources: We come alongside you to help cultivate your strengths and relationships while providing the coaching and resources you need to build your business.

Acumen. The word itself has multiple dimensions. Certainly, its meaning in the context of business is meaningful. Keen Insight; Shrewdness; Wisdom; Ingenuity.
It’s Latin origin “to sharpen” is significant and a natural ty-in to one of our pillars from Proverbs 27:17 ‘As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.’
Acumen is a place where people of faith come together not to judge, but to sharpen and ignite each other in their businesses, marriages, families, faith, and life.

Acumen is An Engaging Community Of Christian CEOs And Business Owners Who Want More - Personally And Professionally.
