Adventure Sherpa

You're Here for a Reason.

Something pushed you to look — growth, clarity, a bigger impact, or a decision you can’t afford to get wrong.

If you’re ready for more, you’re in the right place.

Here’s the deal: I’ll challenge you, guide you, and hold you accountable. But you have to want it. I won’t want it more than you.

Let’s have a real conversation.

I'll hear things that no one else hears and I'll says things no one has EVER said to you.
Coffee or Zoom. 45 minutes. No pitch. Lots of pressure and clarity.

If it’s not a fit, we’ll both know.
If it is, it changes everything.

Ready? Let’s talk.

Curious? Let's talk. My Services.

Vistage Chair / Trusted Advisor / CEO Sherpa FAQ

What is a Vistage Chair?

A Vistage Chair is a facilitator who leads a private CEO peer advisory group and provides monthly one-on-one coaching to every member. Chairs are typically former business owners or executive leaders with significant operating experience. Rod Thurley has served as a Vistage Chair in Nashville for almost a decade.

How is a Vistage group different from a mastermind?

Vistage uses a structured issue-processing methodology developed over 65 years, with groups limited to non-competing members and facilitated by a certified Chair who also coaches each member individually. Vistage is a formal accountability system with a proven track record, not a loosely organized networking group.

What does an executive coach do for a CEO?

An executive coach helps a CEO think more clearly about their business, their team, and their decisions by providing outside perspective and structured accountability. Unlike a consultant who delivers a plan, an executive coach works alongside the leader over time, building better judgment rather than solving one problem.

What is the ROI of a Vistage membership?

Vistage member companies grow at 2.2 times the rate of non-member peers. Members consistently cite better decision-making, stronger leadership teams, and reduced isolation as the returns that matter most beyond revenue growth.

Who is executive coaching right for?

Executive coaching works best for CEOs and business owners who are past the early startup stage, leading a team, and facing decisions too complex or sensitive to work through internally. Best fit is the final decision-maker in a growing company who needs outside perspective and accountability.

Does Rod work with companies outside Nashville?

Rod primarily serves business owners and CEOs within 90 miles of Nashville, covering most of Middle Tennessee and parts of the broader Southeast. Virtual coaching is available for select engagements.

How much does executive coaching cost in Nashville?

Rod Thurley's private one-on-one coaching partnership is $50,000 per year, with limited availability. 

Vistage group membership pricing varies by group and is discussed during the initial clarity session.
