Discuss business decisions with other leaders
Technology and business leaders meet in person to examine decisions that matter, compare experience and question what might work next.
What happens during a TLX exchange
Come with a decision that is not yet settled. The value is in hearing what others tried, why it worked in their setting and what they would change.
Compare decisions, not just results
A moderator helps participants compare experience and question different approaches, including work that has not gone as planned.
When a decision is difficult, another leader’s experience can help you see the choices more clearly. Compare what they faced, ask what changed and consider what applies to your work.
Bring a decision from your work
Choose a question connected to a decision you own. No product presentations or sales speeches.
Compare the conditions
Ask what changed first, what was harder than expected and where an approach may not fit.
Take back a useful next step
Leave with a clearer question, something to test or a view worth discussing with your team.
Choose the time the question needs.
Choose a roundtable, half-day forum or full-day summit based on the business question and time needed. TLX AI and TLX GTM can use any of these formats. A separate CTN-hosted client roundtable follows its own agreed brief and is not automatically a TLX event.
Executive Roundtable
Small-group working discussion
Breakfast, lunch, high tea and dinner are variations of this focused format.
Half-Day Leadership Forum
Panel and table discussion
Working discussions and a moderated panel help leaders examine connected parts of a question.
Full-Day Leadership Summit
Full-day, one-track program
More time for deeper group work and panels around a defined business question.
Two tracks. Clear business questions.
The track sets the program. The event topic explains the specific business issue, industry, function and intended audience.
TLX AI
Where AI can improve business work, which decisions need oversight, what risks must be managed and how results should be judged.
TLX GTM
Commercial decisions for technology and services firms, from market focus and sales to profitable growth. For business-unit, practice, sales and marketing leaders.

Take part in the discussion.
A useful exchange depends on who takes part and the experience they bring. Delegates can ask, challenge and share throughout the program, including when there is a panel.
Participation is reviewed for relevance. Sending a request is not a confirmed seat.
Find an exchange that fits.
The question, audience, place and format should be clear before you decide to take part. We only list dates once they are approved.
Upcoming and past events.
See the currently listed event briefs and examples from earlier CTN discussions. Dates and arrangements may change, so check the details before making plans. If the right event is missing, suggest a business question and city.
Read something useful before you meet.
Prepare with a specific question in mind. These briefings examine the choices behind a result and what you may need to check in your own setting.
What must change before an AI pilot can grow?
Look beyond the demonstration. Examine the work, support, cost and accountability needed when a pilot becomes everyday use.

Support a relevant exchange
