One of the most frequently repeated pieces of advice that we give on the show is to get involved with a board of advisors and to connect with other business owners. Connecting with a group of diverse business owners and executives is a powerful way to build relationships and to bring experience to your business that you may be lacking. You’ll gain insight, critique, and knowledge with every meeting.
We have had business owners on the show that have mentioned the impact of just such an advisory group: the Alliance of CEOs. We’re thrilled to have Paul Witkay, Founder of the Alliance on the show today.
Paul shares the story of why and how he started the Alliance back in 1996 to help both large and Small Business CEO’s solve problems and connect with other leaders.
