Steelworks Design featured through the lens in the latest Expand Your Business Horizons mini-doc from the BDC.

Released by the BDC in late January, 6 Reasons to Form an Advisory Board, chronicles the positive role our own advisory board played in surviving economic downturns, fostering growth and negotiating scalability for the future.

“It’s a professional sounding board to go out and get input and relevant experience to help you make better decisions”, explains Rhonda Barnet, Vice-President of Steelworks. Citing that input from our advisory board can often supplant hundreds of hours of time, she asserts that “Managing an advisory board is not time-consuming, it’s time well-invested in your business.”

The BDC suggests an advisory board may be one of the best-kept secrets in business. For Steelworks, who now sit well above pre-recession levels in earnings and jobs, it’s no secret the effect this invaluable business tool has had in our success.
