Questions you might have

Will there be people in the same business as I’m in, on my Board?

No. The Board is carefully selected to ensure no competitors are on the same board.

Is this another network?

No. However on occasion networking does take place as someone on the board is providing a service you require but the Board is for business owners to get & give support to each other.

Am I suitable to be a board member?If you own/run a business and feel you could do with a support group of people willing to listen and discuss openly (in a confidential environment) their plans and issues then you are suitable.

What would make me unsuitable?If you were not willing to share ideas, not interested in other businesses experiences or if you can honestly say ‘my business is where I want it to be and I have no issues anyone could help me solve’.

Are my issues and plans not unique to my industry?Every business has commonalities from Sales & Marketing to Finance and operations and every Board will have Business owners who are skilled in different areas.
