For Coaches

Bring five expert perspectives to every coaching session.

Great coaches ask the questions that make clients think. SynthBoard runs a Boardroom on your client's decision before the session, so you walk in with the dissent your client is missing.

Start Free See How It Works

What you get

Pre-session prep

Before the call, run your client's decision through a Boardroom session. You walk in knowing the strongest counter-argument they haven't considered.

Multi-perspective framework

Use Boardroom outcomes as the structured framework for the session itself. "Here are the five lenses we should examine this through."

Build a coaching library

Cross-session memory means by client #20, you have a library of how the Boardroom has analyzed similar decisions. Patterns emerge.

Questions people ask

Real questions. Multiple expert perspectives. Every time.

“My CEO client is wrestling with whether to fire her co-founder. What's the strongest case for and against?”

“My founder client wants to take secondaries — what objections should I prepare him for?”

“My client wants to pivot but the board pushed back — how do I help her think through whether to escalate?”

“I'm running a leadership offsite — what pre-mortem questions surface the most useful dissent?”

Your Expert Team

Each expert thinks independently — they won’t just agree with each other.

The Empath

The Empath

Reads the emotional, cultural, and team dynamics behind the decision.

The Strategist

The Strategist

Maps competitive dynamics and strategic options across multi-year horizons.

The Skeptic

The Skeptic

Questions every premise. Finds blind spots others miss.

The Ethicist

The Ethicist

Surfaces second-order consequences and integrity-cost trade-offs.

The CEO

The CEO

Holds the through-line on company strategy and stakeholder trade-offs.

What you’ll get

A synthesized recommendation from your team of experts — not just opinions, but structured analysis.

Key Recommendations

Operationally, the co-founder is a 6-month bottleneck — the cost is clear
Reputationally, mid-fundraise is the worst time to announce a co-founder departure
The "fire vs keep" frame is wrong — the question is about role and reporting structure

Synthesized Recommendation

The case for firing is operational, the case against is reputational and emotional. Coach your client to separate the decision from the timing — the right call may be "yes, but not in Q3." The Empath flags that her hesitation isn't conflict aversion — it's a real assessment of irreplaceable institutional knowledge.

Full analysis continues with detailed reasoning, trade-offs, and next steps...

Watch Out For

If your client makes the call in anger after a specific incident, she'll regret it within 6 weeks
A coached, premeditated transition over 60 days protects both the company and her future relationship with the co-founder

Why SynthBoard for this

Sharper sessions, less prep time

A 10-minute Boardroom session before a client call replaces 90 minutes of mental rehearsal.

Surfaces what your client won't say

The Devil's Advocate Synth raises the objections your client is too close to articulate. You walk in with them ready.

Pairs with your judgment

SynthBoard doesn't replace coaching — it gives you a sharper input. Your role becomes asking the right question with the right context.

Client confidentiality first

Sessions are private to your account by default. Not used for model training. Standard enterprise security posture.

Common questions

The questions people ask before they sign up.

Is this a replacement for coaching?

No — and most coaches who use SynthBoard insist on the distinction. The Boardroom gives the client five expert perspectives. Coaching gives the client the questions that turn those perspectives into a decision they own. Different layers.

Should I disclose to clients that I use SynthBoard?

That's your call. Many coaches treat it as internal prep, like reading the client's industry trade press. Others position it as a methodology asset and run Boardroom sessions IN the coaching session as a structured exercise.

Can I share sessions with clients?

Yes — every session generates a shareable link. Some coaches send the Boardroom synthesis to the client between sessions as homework: "Here's how five different perspectives would think about your call. Which dissent feels most uncomfortable?"

What session mode works best for coaching prep?

The Arena (adversarial) mode for decisions where the client has already committed mentally — it surfaces the dissent they're ignoring. The Deep Dive mode for nuanced decisions with multiple stakeholders.

Will this work for executive coaches vs business coaches?

Both. Executive coaches use it for leadership decisions and team dynamics; business coaches use it for strategic decisions and pivots. The synth lineup adapts — the Empath and CEO Synths feature heavily in exec coaching; the CFO and Strategist Synths feature in business coaching.
