What our Members and Chairs say about Role of Chair
What Makes a Great LCA Roundtable Chair:
A great Roundtable Chair is more than a facilitator – they are the trusted steward of the room. They create psychological safety from the outset, ensuring every leader feels confident to share openly without fear of judgment. Their presence is calm yet commanding, setting a tone of respect and candour that allows real issues to surface.
Exceptional Chairs combine sharp strategic thinking with deep listening. They know when to challenge assumptions and when to let the conversation breathe. They keep discussions focused on outcomes, not just dialogue – guiding the group toward clarity, decisions, and accountability. Above all, they act with integrity and independence, holding confidentiality sacred and modelling the leadership behaviours that inspire trust.
How We Select Our Chairs:
Our Roundtable Chairs are carefully chosen for their ability to facilitate high-level conversations with wisdom and integrity.
They have enjoyed highly successful executive careers and are widely respected within the business community for their leadership, strategic insight, and ability to deliver results.
Our Chairs are retired from full-time executive roles but remain actively involved in the business community—often serving on boards, advising leadership teams, or coaching senior executives. They share a genuine passion for executive development and take pride in helping members navigate complex challenges and seize opportunities. What sets them apart is their curiosity and dedication to lifelong learning; they stay informed, ask insightful questions, and bring fresh perspectives to each discussion. Above all, they enjoy giving back—using their experience to create trusted spaces where leaders can grow and thrive.
