About Us

What Is Collective Thought?

Collective Thought is a small, select group of independent South Wales based business leaders, who work together to help navigate the numerous issues and opportunities each face.

Despite operating in different sectors, each of us faces similar issues and opportunities; we all need to...

• Define and implement a clear business strategy
• Increase sales
• Maximise margin
• Minimise overheads
• Effectively manage cash and other limited resources
• Recruit, motivate and retain staff
• Create and maintain a fantastic work culture
• Look after ourselves as human beings

Many will also want to work towards some form of an exit at some point in the future.

Working together, we each bring a slightly different perspective to the table, and provide alternative ideas for solving any particular problem.

The number of members in the group is capped at 12 to enable strong relationships to be developed, along with a deeper level of trust. To enable free and open discussion, membership is not open to businesses that compete with existing members. Membership is therefore by invitation only, to ensure that any potential new member is a “good fit” with the rest of the group.

"The Collective Thought group effectively provides its members with a de facto totally independent Advisory Board"

What Our Members Say...

"My business is an SME without an independent chair or NEDs, and for many years I was only accountable to myself.  Being a member of the Collective Thought peer group creates that environment of accountability, plus it gives me the opportunity to add value to other members’ businesses, which is very rewarding."

Phillipe, Group CEO – Industrial sector
