Dave Sayen, President, Board of Trustees, Alameda Health System

ABL provides a unique opportunity to understand businesses from the inside. We explore critical decisions with brilliant leaders in a group bringing very different perspectives. It’s like a postgraduate program for MBAs.

"Every meeting fills in another blind spot in my knowledge about the healthcare industry. There is no forum that brings together the broad spectrum of perspectives on health policy so well."

Dave Sayen, President, Board of Trustees, Alameda Health System

Why have I been an ABL Member for over thirty years? As my business grew and then selling it and becoming involved in other businesses as an investor, board member and sometimes temporary executive, my circumstances and challenges changed. I can always count upon candid comments and outstanding advice from Round Table Members as I bring issues to the group. Egos are checked at the door or Zoom entrance, and the advice I receive is actionable and often more valuable than that given by my various corporate board members in those board meetings.

Dave Berkus, Chairman, Multiple Portfolio Companies

Chris Dyer, Founder, PeopleG2 and Remote Work author & speaker

"ABL has been great. It has really helped me in being able to work with start-up businesses and be a very effective entrepreneur - without all the support you get from an 85,000-person company like General Motors."

Jim Meyers, Founder and CEO, T&C LLC
