EXIT CONFIDENTIAL is a private, in-person evening keynote exclusively for Entrepreneurs’ Organization members who want a realistic look at what it truly means to exit a business.
Hosted by Byron McFarland, this confidential session features a panel of EO entrepreneurs who have successfully sold their companies. In an off-the-record setting, panelists share their personal exit stories—openly discussing what worked, what didn’t, and what they wish they had done differently.
This is not a presentation and not a sales pitch. It’s an honest peer-to-peer conversation designed to surface the realities of exiting, including unexpected challenges, emotional decisions, timing considerations, and post-exit reflections. There are no recordings, ensuring a safe and trusted environment for candid dialogue.
EXIT CONFIDENTIAL is valuable whether you’re actively thinking about an exit or simply want to understand how today’s decisions can impact your future. Hearing directly from fellow EO members provides clarity, perspective, and insight that can’t be found in books or podcasts.
Attendees leave with a broader understanding of exit outcomes, lessons learned from real experiences, and a clearer view of what their own future could look like.
EO members only. Owners and founders. Confidential by design.
Exit Confidential Panel will be Chris Mangan, Nikki Osborn, Ryan Jardine, and John Lund
