“As CEO and the owner of my business, I felt that I needed greater perspective.

The answers to the questions I have — and the solutions to the challenges I face —weren’t always clear.

There was no shortage of people willing to offer their advice, and most people have their own agenda. Even the people I trust most don’t really challenge my assumptions. Truly unbiased advice is just difficult to find.

I always felt that all eyes are on me – and at the same time always feeling isolated when facing tough decisions.

I also carried the weight of the enormous responsibility to the performance of my company and to the people who’d spend on me and every decision I make.

And I believed that we have greater potential my company was realizing – and that

something had to change.”

In the proud tradition of what successful CEOs and business owners have been discovering since 1727, when Benjamin Franklin formed his Junto of fellow business owners in Philadelphia to exchange ideas, challenge their thinking and support each other’ success …

ALPS Leadership has launched a fully-modernized approach to meeting the needs and challenges of the world in 2021— with our exclusive cohorts for exceptional business leaders.

Today we offer two custom-tailored levels of leadership support

And our Newest Cohort Offerings

Coaches Cohorts

Family Business Cohorts


When forward thinking, serious minded people commit to support each other’s success, as a group they accomplish together what none of them can alone.

So, what’s holding you back?

The questions you should be asking yourself are:

Am I prepared to become the change I want to see?

And the leader that I need to be?


Phil Liebman is an award-winning leader of leadership cohorts of CEOs and key-level executives since 2005

Traditional meetings have given way to even more powerful, artfully led virtual cohorts – offering greater flexibility, convenience and more continuous and timely support to the members.

It may be easy enough to find people willing to answer your questions – but the real value is from people who will question your answers. This only happens in a high-intensity learning environment where the value of your own contribution to others is the determinate of the value you receive yourself.

At ALPS leadership we believe that if you grow as a person – you will grow as a leader.

Our Cohorts for Leaders provide a foundation for personal and professional growth – through a combination of mentoring, expert resource learning sessions and facilitated discussion that tackles the hard parts of leading an organization successfully by offering perspective, providing honest feedback – and provides the kind of guidance that leads to better decisions and better results.

Phil has successfully led numerous groups through the years, working with dozens of CEOs and their companies with revenues ranging from $5 – more than $200 million.

If you would like to learn more – or find out if you qualify for an invitation – please contact us today and discover why our ALPS Leadership Cohorts help make better leaders, who make better decisions and outperform their competition to accomplish what matters most.
