What will the board of a small business look like in the future?
It has always been impossible to be an expert on all subjects.
In todays, increasingly complex world, it is becoming virtually impossible to even have a broad knowledge of all the subjects needed to run a successful small business.
Small business owners, simply can't wear that many hats
In the past they didn't know what they didn't know, and they didn't mind.
Today they are beginning to realise what they don't know and are worried about it.
As a result, increasing they are turning to outside parties for help and support.
