SOLVED YOUR PROBLEM
ConnectWork is D168’s vetted professional network —
a curated community of operators, executives, and domain experts who’ve joined to share what they know. Qualified by outcomes, not titles. Independent, bookable, and available inside the platform.
All browsing, booking, and video sessions happen inside the D168 platform. A free account gets you full access to the ConnectWork dashboard.
FREE ACCOUNT REQUIRED • NO CREDIT CARD • ADVISORS SET THEIR OWN RATES & AVAILABILITY INSIDE THE PLATFORM

HOW IT WORKS
EVERYTHING HAPPENS INSIDE D168. START TO FINISH.
01
Create Free Account
Register at app.decision168.com — no credit card required. Your account gives you access to the full platform including the ConnectWork dashboard.
02
Open ConnectWork
From your D168 dashboard, select ConnectWork from the features menu. You’ll see the full advisor network with profiles, specialties, and live availability.
03
Search & Filter Advisors
Filter by your challenge, industry, or the type of outcome you’re working toward. Every advisor’s track record and rates are visible in their profile.
04
Request a Booking
Submit a booking request to your chosen advisor. A structured intake ensures both sides arrive prepared — no wasted time on either end.
05
Advisor Accepts — Calendar Set
Once the advisor confirms, the session is automatically added to both your D168 calendar and theirs. No back-and-forth scheduling.
06
Meet Inside D168
Your video consultation happens via D168’s built-in meeting feature — no Zoom link, no external tool. Everything stays inside the platform.
After your session: log your decision and outcome directly in D168 — so the advice you received compounds with the goals and projects already in your platform. Advice that stacks, not advice that evaporates.

Dr. Untara Shaikh
Independent operator — rates & terms set by them, not D168
More advisors available inside the platform — covering healthcare, technology, finance, real estate, marketing, and more. Each advisor sets their own rates, availability, and session types.
ConnectWork members are independent operators who set their own rates, terms, and availability. D168 curates the network for quality but does not employ, direct, or take responsibility for the advice provided in ConnectWork sessions. All sessions are conducted directly between the user and the ConnectWork member.
VETTING CRITERIA
EVERY MEMBER OF CONNECTWORK IS QUALIFIED BY WHAT THEY’VE DONE — NOT WHAT THEIR BIO SAYS.
Proven exits or scale
Built, grown, or successfully transitioned a venture with outcomes that can be assessed independently.
Domain depth
Verified expertise in a specific industry, function, or challenge type — not broad generalist advice.
Revenue milestones
Demonstrated ability to generate or manage significant revenue in their specific domain.
Real decisions made
High-stakes calls under pressure — with outcomes that can be evaluated, not just claimed.
Teams built & led
Track record of developing people and organizations — not just individual contributor work.
ConnectWork Standing
Reviewed and accepted into the network based on track record. Independent operators who set their own terms.
