The CEO Bootcamp (a post by @FredWilson)

"My friend and former business partner Jerry Colonna has created The CEO Bootcamp . It's a four day retreat in the Colorado mountains with 19 other CEOs and a few facilitators, led by Jerry. The first CEO Bootcamp was last fall and you can see what attendees thought about it here . And here's a blog post by Sooinn Lee about her experience last fall at CEO Bootcamp. There are two aspects to this experience. There are the four days where attendees learn skills to help them manage the leadership role they are in, and there is the ongoing support that the group of CEOs provide each other after the retreat is over. The CEO Bootcamp has some requirements. They are: You’re the CEO of a tech startÂup that has employees. This is the first time you have been a CEO within a company of this scale. You’ve logged immeasurable hours and have made tremendous sacrifices. You’ve had success with your company. You realize there is more to this game than “success.†You may be tired, but you must  be vulnerable, curious and courageous. If you fit these requirements and want to spend four days in early April in the Colorado mountains with a bunch of peer CEOs figuring out what it takes to be a successful leader, you can apply here ."
