Show Notes
Every big decision in a solo business gets made by a committee of one, usually tired, usually at night. This episode is how I gave my business a board of directors for zero dollars, one that argues with itself using my real numbers, and always hands the decision back to me. I'm Makeda Boehm, nearly $10M closed in tech sales, and my whole business runs on A.I. employees built on one foundation.
In this episode:
- Why unchallenged decisions, not bad ideas, are the expensive ones
- Executor mode vs examiner mode, the A.I. shift almost nobody makes
- The five seats at my board's table and what each one argues
- The rule that keeps the judgment yours: the board examines, you decide
- Which decisions never go to the board at all
Who this is for: the owner carrying every major call alone.
