Introducing the New Kind Board of Advisors

One of the things I have learned in my business career is the importance of surrounding yourself with people who are smarter than you, whether they are colleagues, mentors, or advisors.

Many young companies like New Kind rely heavily on the advice and counsel of others who have been successful in their respective professions and we are no exception.

Today, I am pleased to announce the first New Kind Board of Advisors.

On this board we are honored to welcome a fantastic group of people who are recognized leaders in business, education, public policy, and technology. These individuals not only bring great wisdom and deep experience, but each has a genuine commitment to making our world a better place in which to live and work.

Here’s a brief introduction to the members of our Board of Advisors (click on a name or picture to access the complete bio).

You may ask, why does New Kind need a Board of Advisors? The short answer is that the board will provide advice, recommendations, and guidance to New Kind related to corporate goals and strategy.

But beyond that, we believe an outside board will make us a better company; better for our own personal growth and better for those organizations and companies that we are fortunate enough to call our clients.

We are humbled that these accomplished individuals are willing to invest their time and expertise in helping us build a great company.  And to our advisors I say, thank you for agreeing to serve.  We will do everything we can to exceed your expectations.
