What is a personal board of advisors, and how would I build one?
Short answer
It is a set of AI advisors you configure to hold distinct expert perspectives on a problem you are working through. Each has a defined point of view. They can respond as a group or individually, including one assigned to argue against whatever you propose.
Think of it as a kitchen cabinet with no scheduling problem.
One of our training clients built exactly this. The challenge was group decision-making at scale, specifically how to establish consensus and build a supportive constituency through large town-hall style meetings in a strategic planning process. The solution was a custom advisory board of experts in group dynamics and consensus building, including several counterparts to the author of a well-known book on collective decision-making.
Each advisor had a distinct point of view. Each was configured with real depth on group decision-making. They could work as a collective, each offering an opinion, or be called out individually to play a specific role, including devil's advocate assigned to poke holes in any idea.
The result was a high-performing thinking group available at any hour.
If you are unsure which experts to include, the tools themselves can help you source names from any field. The value is not in the novelty. It is that most executives make consequential decisions with fewer people they can genuinely think out loud with than they had ten years ago, and this is a way to restore some of that.
