Meet The Advisors

Meet Your Advisors

Your Advisor’s main role is to facilitate your group, allowing everyone to work together and bring their best experiences and insights to the table. Advisors are here to support and coax out the best talent within you, not talk over you.

Your Advisor will bring valuable topics to the table and ask insightful questions. They will help shed light on issues and opportunities, ensuring that they are effectively addressed by the entire group.

Your Group Advisor = Your Personal Advisor

When you join Keystone Peer Network, an experienced Advisor not only will guide the structured meeting each month, but is also available to you for a dedicated 1:1 session.

Your monthly 1:1 session is scheduled between you and your Advisor at a mutual time that works for your schedules.

This session is designed to enhance your membership by diving deep into your unique challenges and opportunities you are considering with an expert who has scaled organizations like yours, and helped guide others through similar situations. 

Time every month to focus on your goals

It’s crucial to work on your business, not just in it. Like your Peer CEO group, your 1:1 Advisor session is a value-added time each month to lift yourself out of the weeds and examine where you want to go, with outside wisdom and expertise to make measurable progress. 

This time also provides you with a chance to pre-work how to bring potentially more vulnerable issues or fresh opportunities to the group in a way that will give you the best feedback.  

About Us

How We Started

In July of 2022, a group of visionary business leaders in Western North Carolina recognized the immense value of peer-to-peer advisory as a strategy for their personal and business growth. Driven by their shared passion, they embarked on a mission to create an unparalleled offering that would benefit their entire community of business leaders.

With the goal of establishing a dynamic support structure that would foster engagement and facilitate growth, the group concluded that a professional advisor-led, membership-based peer group was essential. Thus, the Keystone Peer Network was born under the direction and leadership of William Irving. 

The Network’s mission has been clear since the onset: To provide our vibrant community's business leaders with a dedicated support group(s) led by key Advisors to maximize each leader's full potential for business growth and personal fulfillment, both in the workplace and at home. 

As proud members of the Western North Carolina business community, we are excited to be a key part of its thriving business ecosystem.
