We kicked off our 2018 member awards in three regions across the U.S. Members and Chairs nominated members for exceptional leadership, impact in their first years with Vistage and lifetime achievement. See more winners at vistage.com/awards.












The Nourse Chair of the Year and Pat Hyndman Awards are named in honor of Vistage founder Bob Nourse and legendary Chair Pat Hyndman. These awards recognize Chairs for the exceptional value they provide members and their service to the community.

Chair Gary Brennglass embodies the Vistage core values of trust, caring, challenge and growth. Though he achieved remarkable success over his 30 years of C-level leadership and as an executive coach, he attends every workshop available to learn more about the art of Chairing. He is generous with his time and energy, leading key partnerships and issue processing sessions for our Los Angeles community.


Master Chair David Zerfoss has gone above and beyond the call of duty in service to the Vistage community and has given unselfish and immeasurable service to the Charlotte business community. He exemplifies what the Hyndman Award is truly about: community, commitment, clarity, alignment and the pursuit of excellence through relentless improvement. Zerfoss is an Executive in Residence at the Queens University, McColl School of Business and has published two books on how to choose less stress in business and life.
