Graeme Ward

As Owner and President of The Alternative Board of The Woodlands, Graeme brings over 27 years of diverse executive leadership to TAB, building and managing businesses both locally and internationally, from start-ups to $30+ million operations.

Graeme understands entrepreneurs. He has founded four companies and sold two. As a CEO/Leader Graeme led dramatic turnarounds at three companies. Each time leading to a successful acquisition.

Graeme has always focused on growing the leadership capabilities of each of his team, through coaching. It is this belief in growing the skills of his teams that has been at the cornerstone of his success, and is what attracted him to TAB.

A former professional rugby player, Graeme focuses that same discipline, drive and passion into the companies he works with. Naturally curious with a positive demeanor, Graeme has shown time and again his ability to be his best in rapidly changing times.

I have found my investment in TAB to be one of the best things I have done. One of the benefits of joining TAB has been the Peer Board Member’s help in designing a sales program that works. It works because I took the time to help our sales people become better salespeople, not merely pressure them to do more of the same. By being around people who think differently who are going to ask me each meeting how I did, compels me to make the improvements that enable me to enjoy life, and boy, do I enjoy life. I recommend this amazing program without question.

The Alternative Board is a place to learn and gather information. It is a group of people to bounce my solutions or ideas off before I try them. I gain valuable input for the decisions I have to make. Also it is very easy to see other’s mistakes, but not realize you have made the same mistake or are currently making the same mistake. Decisions, solutions & especially employee issues become obvious.

The TAB meetings bring together terrific expertise and creativity. Every meeting is a unique learning experience. My entire thinking about what I want my business to do has shifted. Sales are up 60% in two years. The support I need to make tough choices and start new initiatives may not be found within the company, but will be found in the TAB meetings and coaching sessions.
