The Alternative Board

We help business owners achieve their strategic goals.

The Alternative Board (TAB) brings together local business owners and CEOs to solve problems, seize opportunities, and grow stronger—together. Through monthly peer advisory boards and executive coaching, TAB helps leaders gain clarity, make better decisions, and achieve their personal and business goals.

What Local Business Leaders Are Saying
“I joined TAB several years ago when our business was only a handful of people and I was a relatively new CEO. Although my company has an active Board of Directors, I was looking for someone an arm’s length away to serve as my mentor and coach to help with my personal development as a CEO.

Through the years, my board and coach have helped me to develop from a manager to a leader. We've built a team of talented and motivated employees, guided by our mission, who raise our ceiling every single day. Our business has scaled immensely since we first started working together and I certainly couldn't have done it without TAB.”
- David Nackashi, CEO of Protochips, Inc

“I have been a member of a TAB group for over 10 years. My business is larger, smoother, more efficient, more profitable, less hassle and I spend less time working than I did 10 years ago. A great deal of the changes I have made are at the instigation of my TAB board members or the TAB facilitators. I am a much better businessman as a result. TAB is the best investment I have made in running my business.

I have recommended TAB to two other business owners and the one who joined has transformed his business and the one who didn’t is still complaining about the same old things. I guess he likes being in a rut!”
- Bob Schmitz, Owner of Bob Schmitz Properties
