Hear from our members about how C12 has transformed their businesses and leadership. Their stories highlight the impact of faith-driven decision-making, peer accountability, and strategic guidance in achieving both professional and personal growth.
I joined C12 because I was invited by a trusted and respected friend who has been part of this incredible community. From my first guest forum, I was blown away by the diversity and depth of the leaders at the table—CEOs and business owners united in their commitment to both business excellence and ministry. The combination of forward-thinking topics, personalized accountability, and Christ-centered guidance has been more valuable than any business degree and has become a cornerstone for the growth and health of my company.

Everyone wants to know if joining a group like C12 is worth it. C12 provided me with training, tools, and experienced people to guide me through my first year as a CEO, it offered access to tools that were leveraged by the company owners to help them understand the process and considerations for preparing themselves to sell a family business. In my first year I was able to implement one thing every month that came from the C12 syllabus. This set the company on a path of Owner Autonomous Operations increasing the value and salability of the company at the same time it helped lay the foundation for rapid growth. We now have opportunities in front of us that will drive 50% growth in revenue in one year and found a private equity backer to help with that growth while preserving the family legacy. C12 is more than just the C12 organization, my fellow members bring perspectives and insights that only people who have walked the same path could provide.
CEO, Vanguard Skin Specialists
I had an MBA from HBS and 20+ years of business experience when I joined C12. However, what I did not have was an inspiring community of like-minded CEOs and the guidance to integrate my faith into my work. C12 has made me a better leader and a more faithful Christ follower. Today, I have greater purpose in my work and a deeper sense of abiding joy. If you are like me, then your biggest barrier is time. I cannot stress this enough – you and your business will get back so much more than the time and resources you put in.

I called and God answered through C12. I needed accountability, systems, processes, and a management system that fit God’s call on my heart. My Ministry/Company has come a long way. Not without fighting for it, righteously of course. I got the tools, the leadership, the likemindedness of other Spirit led CEO’s to speak into me. Highly recommend! Call me and I will tell you about it. Numbers 6:24-26
CEO, Best Sign Systems
C12 Colorado, a Christian based CEO group has provided my company and me personally with best in practice business curriculum topics and support through a monthly agenda that focuses holistically on improving our servant mentality as Christian business owners. My two years as a member of C12 Colorado has provided networking opportunities, growth for my business and me as an individual before God, and encouragement when many days it can feel like we are alone as leaders. Our groups are designed to be no larger than 12 to make them participatory, which creates a bond of closeness as we all fight similar battles daily in business as it relates to people, process and systems.

My C12 forum has become my trusted counsel, lifting me up, holding me accountable, and sharpening me as a leader—all for the glory of God. As Proverbs 27:17 reminds us, “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.”
