Getting advice from your peers, mentors, and friends, helping to resolve your business problems no matter how simple or complex. By the time the meeting ends, you will have a path, direction, or suggestions on how to approach, effectively attack, and possibly resolve the issue. The round table effect, thinking together, and acting alike, produces great results.
