Advisory Board Membership
Our advisory board services bring together business owners from non-competing sectors into an advisory board. With the advisory board membership, fellow members in the advisory board help identify opportunities and solve challenges. Learn more on how to become an advisory board member.
Advisory Committee Board
Our business advisory boards bring together business owners from non-competing sectors in a group setting – similar to a board of directors. As part of a TAB Board, you and your fellow members will help one another identify opportunities and solve the challenges that you each face in your own companies.
As a business owner, sometimes it can feel like you’re on your own. But getting business advice from a different perspective is invaluable for meeting the challenges of business ownership. This is where we have seen our business owner advisory boards make a real difference. The other advisory board members around the table provide the inspiration, expertise and accountability needed to take your business to the next level. Think of them as your personal sounding period, or board of directors, for your business ideas and decisions.
How do the advisory boards work?
A business owner can often get overwhelmed, like being stuck in quicksand. A consultant or a financial advisor might advise on making or changing certain decisions. But that’s often where it ends. A TAB Business Owner Advisory board jumps in the quicksand with you.
Imagine what a difference it could make to you and your business if there was somewhere you could go to talk openly about the challenges and opportunities that you face in running your business.
