Question 1

Who is a TAB Austin peer board for?

Accepted Answer

For-profit business owners in the Greater Austin area, typically doing $1M–$20M in annual revenue. You don't need a title beyond 'owner' ,  you do need decision-making authority and a willingness to be challenged.

Question 2

What actually happens at a board meeting?

Once a month, 8–12 non-competing owners meet for a structured 4-hour session led by a TAB-certified facilitator. Each member gets focused time on their biggest challenge or opportunity, with input from the rest of the room.

Question 3

How is this different from EO, Vistage, or YPO?

TAB serves the $1M–$20M segment specifically ,  owners who are still hands-on. Every member also gets a private 1-on-1 monthly coaching call with their facilitator. We're more accessible, more intimate, and more execution-focused.

Roughly 6 hours per month: a 4-hour board meeting plus a 1-on-1 coaching call. Members consistently report this is the most leveraged 6 hours on their calendar.
