Congrats to David Phillips, Owner of Ja-Mar Roofing & Sheet Metal, on receiving his 10-Year Vistage Membership Award at Austin Country Club on April 15.

In 2025, David also earned Vistage Austin’s Lifetime Membership Award—a reflection of the leader he’s become.

But ask David what made the difference, and it’s not just strategy or timing.

“Being challenged by other leaders changed how I lead my business.”

David credits his Vistage group and chair for helping him become a better leader and make better decisions along the way.

Here’s the truth:

Most CEOs don’t struggle because they lack intelligence or work ethic.
They struggle because they’re making high-stakes decisions… alone.

No sounding board.
No pushback.
No place to uncover blind spots before they become costly mistakes.

That’s where Vistage comes in.

A confidential group of peers who challenge your thinking,
expand your perspective and help you make better decisions when it matters most.

If you’re an SMB owner—
you don’t have to go it alone.

If you’re an Austin CEO and this hits close to home,
it might be time to stop deciding alone.

Happy to compare notes.
