In this episode, Brad Charron, CEO of Aloha, and Kierstin Rielly, CEO of the Women on Boards Project, break down what separates a board that simply fills seats from one that helps you make better decisions, avoid costly mistakes, and build a stronger company. Using Aloha's board as a real-world case study, they share a practical framework for choosing the right people, compensating them fairly, and turning your board into a real competitive advantage.

• Who belongs on your board (and who doesn't)

• Why operators often make better board members than career directors

• How board compensation and equity typically work

• When advisors make sense—and when it's time for a formal board

• How to get more value out of every board meeting

• How the right board can help you make better decisions as you scale
