Questions

Before you sign up

What's the actual difference between Strategic Circle and Leadership Alliance?

Leadership Alliance is the application-only higher tier. It inherits the Research Library, Member Briefing, Quarterly Outlook and Professional Forum, then adds Private Research Dossiers, the Analyst Desk and Strategy Sessions.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Strategic Circle bills monthly. Cancel from your account settings and access simply runs to the end of the current billing period.

Who writes the analysis?
