NexGen is a peer network geared to spark professional and personal growth in business executives and leaders. It was founded by business people who had experienced other peer networks and sought better value.

The strength of a peer network is in the people who join. Tom Reynolds’ goal as a facilitator of these quarterly meetings is to bring together like-minded business people who share common values. We build a trusting environment in which honest discussions about important business and personal issues can be shared. Every meeting includes a guest speaker addressing current business topics.

For each member, the expectations should be high but the requirements are easy. Come to a meeting prepared to discuss your issues with a group of like-minded people. Speak openly and directly about issues that others bring. Finally, come to every meeting receptive to new ideas. Members make themselves available to other NexGen participants for one-on-one conversations between meetings. All discussions are confidential.

NexGen meets quarterly on the campus of Azusa Pacific University in Glendora, Calif., or at members’ offices. Meetings, which include a topical guest speaker plus light breakfast and lunch, start at 8:15 AM and conclude by 2 PM.
