The Alternative Board?

[Frimley111R]

Just had a call from them, its some sort of mentoring/support group franchise I think. Anyone know much about them?

Used to be a member, it's very good. Like a cheaper version of Vistage. I'm now a member of a competitor organisation that happens to be based at my office park. Very useful to have as a sounding board for SME's.

I used to a member for quite a while, actually in your neck of the words - North Downs.

It will come down to the facilitator is - that is about 50% of the importance. As an aside, even though the 'board' I was on haven't met together in three years, we still get together socially and have the same conversations about our businesses, the challenges we face etc.

The breadth of knowledge and experience on our 'board' was excellent, and added great value to our business, and to me personal. I like the fact that it isn't just about business, but about the person. As CEO's (etc), work life balance is pretty important, and TAB factors that in. Happy to answer any questions - PM?
