What Our Members Say

Members describe The Alternative Board as life-changing. They say they’ve never understood what was missing until they found TAB. You’ve succeeded and survived alone, but with TAB, you and your business will thrive.

"I went to a sample board meeting and was most impressed with the process. Not only did we get a personal coach but we got access to all the other wisdom and experience held by the other Board Members, who are business owners. The membership fee is structured in a realistic way to the size of our business, making the coaching relationship more sustainable for the long term. It’s a growth process and all of us who sit around the Board table get lifted up knowing it is a safe place to share our challenges with one another and help out with wise and creative solutions."

"TAB is brilliant at helping us step back, get perspective, and calm us in times of chaos. I have more control over my business and more importantly, I’ve managed to regain a work/life balance. With the professionalism and integrity of the TAB Facilitator and the support of other TAB members, I’d recommend The Alternative Board to any business owner who wants help getting to their goals.It’s not a magic trick, it requires a lot of hard work and commitment. But it works."

"By attending Board Meetings you learn a lot about your own business. You also learn a lot about yourself, especially from different perspectives. When you run your own business, you can get narrow-minded and tunnel vision can easily set in, especially as there just aren’t enough of you at that one level. It is good to have everyone’s opinion. I’ve resolved several issues while sat at the board table with the other members."

"Today was super cool and very challenging and rigorous. Thanks for all your energy and patience with us, harnessing our different viewpoints and shared values and helping us refine and articulate our vision. No mean feat! I really enjoyed it."

"I owned and ran a small electrical contracting business for almost 36 years. It was doing quite well, we were definitely making money. Just over four years ago I got an invite to attend a trial meeting of The Alternative Board, and I went along. I was not put off by what I heard at the meeting so I thought that I would give it a go and see what happened. Four years later I still regularly attend The Alternative Board meetings. My business has become more profitable and grown. The Alternative Board has helped me keep things on track. I still find value in the meetings and the one-on-one coaching. I believe that the value that The Alternative Board brings to my business outweighs the cost and therefore is money well spent. There are often good ideas that come out of these meetings that are most helpful."
