The three previous Org Dev'l books pertain to Executive Coaching, Strategic Planning and Executive Onboarding.This book focuses on the rationale and value of creating and evolving a client advisory board and offers a blueprint to establish, engage and benefit from a client advisory board. By providing insights beyond the ordinary and bringing innovative ideas to the marketplace, client advisor boards are primarily "client-in" rather than "business-out." A client advisory board should be an outgrown of business strategy and result in a very wise investment of time, talent, and resources. The book's preface speaks to the purpose of writing this book. The book's introduction changes direction to explain and lay the groundwork for the book's thesis about what, why and how of client advisory boards. In short, the preface portrays the rationale for the book, the introduction outlines benefits for the reader and sets the stage for the third part of the book - the progressive CAB steps of outputs, outcomes, input, processes, products.As an external facilitator and end-to-end CAB Planning Team Member, I wrote this book as an attempt to summarize the knowledge gained from twenty-years of client advisory board experiences with amazing business partners and exceptional clients from large, medium and smaller sized businesses in variety of industries This collaborative engagement with hundreds of client board sponsors, leaders and clients literally lead me to principles and practices expressed in this book. This book is "lessons of experience" book with usable, practical, and proven guidance for those who follow.
