A Christian Advisory Board is where members experience Christ-centered business leadership community. During CAB time our members fellowship, process specific business issues, receive wise counsel and share wisdom in a rich peer-to-peer forum. CBF's greatest value to you is in providing you with a seat at a Christian Advisory Board.
Prior to placement into a CAB, a short orientation period is required. During the first meeting you attend, you will spend time in a group with other prospective members and CBF leaders getting to know more about the organization. We ask that you complete and return the Profile Form so we can understand your current role and your unique goals. Your Profile Form and conversations during orientation are essential for your placement into a CAB that will be the best fit for you. Before the next meeting, a leader from your CAB will call you to let you know the name of the group in which you’ve been placed. You will be assigned a mentor who will schedule a one-on-one meeting with you.
For CABs to achieve maximum impact, there has to be a rich exchange between the members. So active participation during CAB time is expected. We also strongly encourage, though it remains optional, that our CABs meet outside of the monthly meeting.
