What's the best support model when scaling? This week, I break down Advisory Boards and Governance Boards, to help you find the best model for your business.

This week I unpack a high level summary of Advisory Boards and Governance Boards.

We explore their roles in providing support to Founders who are scaling, their pros and cons, and then explore how they can work together harmoniously in a decision making ecosystem to help your business scale sustainably.

I've been a Director on the Governance Board of 5 companies, as an Executive Director. I'm also an Advisory Board professional - a Certified Chair, Fellow and Member of Faculty with the ABC - the peak body for Advisory Board Professionals globally. This gives me a unique perspective into the benefits and disadvantages of both.

So if you're looking to professionalise your company and formalise your support but wondering which model is best for you, then this week's episode is for you.

05:42 The role of a Governance Board and where it fits best
