Peer Groups

Now you don’t have to face business issues alone.

MichBusiness Peer Groups give business people a confidential place to turn for answers, advice, affiliation, and association. These groups are educational in nature providing members with a unique and affordable professional development opportunity within a facilitated forum where solutions to common issues are discovered by sharing experiences and best practices.

Peer Group members develop a circle of trust, where challenges and experiences are openly discussed.
