Could you please take a few moments and answer this very short survey on the attached file? Even if you have very little contact with your advisory board I am very interested in your opinion. By completing this survey you will be contributing to the goal of identifying best practices for establishing and maintaining a business advisory board and I will send you the study findings upon request. All answers will be kept confidential to the extent possible, acknowledging that any form of communication over the Internet does carry a minimal risk of loss of confidentiality. All information will be reported in the aggregate. Participation in this study is voluntary, and all participants may refuse to answer any question found on the survey.
