# The Board International > The Board International (TBI) is a strategic advisory and operating partnership that helps owners, founders, CEOs, C-suite leaders, boards and leadership teams strengthen leadership, clarify strategy, improve execution and build long-term enterprise value. The Board is the umbrella brand identity. The Board International is the strategic advisory and operating partnership arm. The Board Capital is a distinct private investment arm. This describes brand architecture, not legal ownership. TBI primarily partners with established privately held and middle-market businesses navigating growth, scale, leadership complexity, transition, acquisition, succession or underperformance. Engagements are selective and long-term. Prospective engagements are reviewed for industry conflicts with existing client relationships. Client leadership retains responsibility for business decisions and execution. The TBI Performance System is a growing ecosystem of proprietary frameworks and operating disciplines, not a finished software product. Public pages describe its purpose, not protected assessment questions or mechanics. ## Company and leadership - [The Board International](https://theboardintl.com/): Strategy, leadership, execution and enterprise value. - [About The Board](https://theboardintl.com/about/): Company overview, brand architecture, audiences, company facts and common questions. - [Dave McLurg](https://theboardintl.com/dave-mclurg/): Founder & CEO, selected experience, working style and public leadership philosophy. ## Offerings and partnership - [What We Solve](https://theboardintl.com/what-we-solve/): Business signals and diagnostic focus. - [How We Partner](https://theboardintl.com/how-we-partner/): Relationship model and operating sequence. - [Board & CEO Partnership](https://theboardintl.com/board-ceo-partnership/): Long-term counsel for consequential leadership and business decisions. - [Growth & Scale](https://theboardintl.com/growth-scale/): Opportunity, leadership capacity and operating scalability. - [Performance](https://theboardintl.com/performance/): An evolving framework ecosystem connecting signals, priorities, ownership and follow-through. - [Who We Partner With](https://theboardintl.com/who-we-partner-with/): Business stages, audiences and mutual expectations. - [Contact](https://theboardintl.com/contact/): Discuss a potential partnership.
