Our Mission
To support Members and ensure they are exposed to the full range of Criticaleye opportunities, including forming constructive connections with other Members, attending relevant events and utilising online Insights, so that we are a first port of call for questions and information on a range of business issues.

Our Vision
To create a safe and trusted environment in which leaders, both of and within organisations, can collaborate to share knowledge, solve problems and gain perspective on a diverse range of business issues.

  • Relevance
    Criticaleye recognises the imperative of staying current for today's business leaders, we therefore endeavour to remain at the forefront of change and anticipate future challenges by raising topical issues and offering significant and constructive connections.
Our Success Story

We've all heard the phrase, 'It's lonely at the top'. As chief executives across Criticaleye's Membership tell me, being a leader can be immensely rewarding, but also quite isolating. Who do you turn to when it comes to debating important issues on strategy? And, where can you go for solutions?

Unlike the individuals on the teams you lead, who are more than likely encouraged to share ideas and information, there are few people you can ask for useful and impartial advice. Your staff will expect you to have the answers already and professional advisors are likely to push their own agendas. In addition to this, the immediacy of today's business environment, where advances in technology and communications have intensified the pace of change, has created a world where leaders and directors have to be up-to-date and on-message around the clock.

Criticaleye was created in 2002 with the aim of helping leaders across industry sectors, business functions and geographical locations resolve business issues through peer-to-peer debate and discussion. Our Community works on the premise that business leaders and chief executives  need a safe space to ask questions and discuss solutions without the threat of being held to ransom by employees, stakeholders or the media for not knowing the answer to every problem or challenge that presents itself.
