The Alternative Board

We provide facilitated peer advisory boards and business coaching for owners of companies with offices in a local territory. Our TAB Boards bring business owners together on a monthly basis to discuss challenges, share ideas, and get input from a trained facilitator and other members. We also offer business assessments, coaching sessions, and related tools and materials such as books, audio programs, online assessments, and newsletters. Customers typically pay an initial assessment fee and recurring monthly membership dues, with additional services available as needed. Our business is delivered locally through facilitated board meetings and one-on-one coaching under our TAB methods and brand.
