Design a Personal Board of Directors to Guide Your Career and Goals
Struggling with big decisions? Build a personal board of directors to gain clarity, support and smarter insights into your next move.
Last week, I was in a discussion panel at work - we were debating the role of a coach or mentor, and the merits of both in the workplace.
I don't believe you need to choose. You can build an entire team to support you when you are facing a challenge.
Who do you turn to when you’re stuck?
When you’re making a career move, starting something new, or feeling lost—most of us rely on gut instinct, a quick search, or a chat with a friend.
But what if you had a trusted team in your corner?
A Personal Board of Directors is exactly that. A group of people—real or imagined—who offer guidance, challenge your thinking, and keep you focused on what matters.
Why You Need a Personal Board
- You get diverse perspectives beyond your own bias.
- You stay accountable to long-term goals, not just short-term emotions.
- You build a system for better decision-making, not just advice on the fly.
