  The Alternative Board (Worldwide)

  Sept 2017 - Jan 2019

  Certified Peer Board Facilitator & Business Coach

  What do a manufacturer, builder and software company owner all have in common? The insight, experience and wisdom to help each other achieve their personal and company vision. TAB’s Business Owner Advisory Boards expand the thinking of members beyond their particular industry providing out of the box perspectives to spur new ways of doing business. No theories—just practical, real-world, tried and tested solutions and invaluable hands-on experience. Our members consider their board to be the ONLY place they can discuss their business challenges.TAB works with successful business owners who are tired of wasting time and money from advisors and consultants and who feel that their current practices are not elevating their businesses to the next level. We bring together CEOs, owners and presidents of non-competing companies to meet in groups of 8 – 12 members for one morning a month in a relaxed, confidential setting to discuss issues and opportunities.Each board has 200 to 300 years of business experience. Members receive solid insight and practical advice that they can apply immediately to the challenges they face. Owners and CEOs who join TAB get to work on their business instead of in it and the board is both an invaluable advisory resource and a peer group that demands accountability. Show less
