Who We Serve

  • CEOs

    Chief Executive Officers are the core of our community at Wisdom Board. We salute them, and seek to empower their leadership to optimize their mission, impact, respect, and shareholder value creation.


    "Before you become a leader, success is all about growing yourself. After you become a leader, success is about growing others."

    - Jack Welch (CEO, General Electric)

  • Chairman (Chairperson)

    Chairmen are empowered to hold the torch for the Board of Directors, providing sound, unwavering, balanced advice, and the bridge for the Company’s internal and external worlds. Chairmen may or may not be the CEO - that is up to you.


    “The greatest leader is not necessarily the one who does the greatest things. He is the one that gets the people to do the greatest things.”

    – Ronald Reagan

  • Owners (The Capital)

    Owners and investors, carrying the ultimate weight of the Company, may have Boards, or not. Either way, they always influence, or lead the Boards, and may form a Board to enhance governance, and employ others’ wisdom, augmenting their own.


    “Ownership is not a vice, not something to be ashamed of, but rather a commitment, and an instrument by which the general good can be served. “

    – Vaclav Havel

  • Independent Directors

    Independence is a tool that can be used wisely on, and for, private Boards. While independent directors are not essential, it is best to employ them. Be a Wisdom Board.


    “Learning without thought is labor lost; thought without learning is perilous.”

    – Confucius

  • Observers (advisors)

    Observation of a private Board - with unaffiliated resource(s)n - should be welcome, and conducted by experienced executives. Observers hold the Company’s best interests in mind.


    “Awareness is the greatest agent for change.”

    – Eckhart Tolle

  • Founders

    Founders come in many shapes and sizes - women, men, teams, even children - small, medium, large. In the end, all want their own form of trophy. Our job is to empower that outcome.


    “Competing at the highest level is not about winning. It’s about preparation, courage, understanding and nurturing your people, and heart. Winning is the result.”

    – Joe Torre
