Gill's Notes on the Bible
Without counsel purposes are disappointed,.... If a man determines and resolves upon a matter, and at once hastily and precipitately goes about it, without mature deliberation, without consulting with himself, and taking the advice of others in forming a scheme to bring about his designs, it generally comes to nothing; see
Luke 14:28; or "without a secret" s without keeping one; if a man divulges his intentions, it is much if they are not frustrated; so the Targum,
"vain are the thoughts (or designs) where there is no secret;''
if a man makes no secret of what he designs to do, he is easily counterworked, and his purposes disappointed;
but in the multitude of counsellors they are established; his purposes are, as in Proverbs 20:18; having the advice of others, and these many, he is confirmed that he is right in what he has thought of and purposed to do; and therefore goes about it with the greater spirit and cheerfulness, and is most likely to succeed, and generally does; see
Proverbs 11:14.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Counsellors - The Hebrew word, used almost as an official title 1 Chronicles 27:32; Isaiah 1:26; Isaiah 19:11, brings before us the picture of the council-chamber of Eastern countries, arranged for a solemn conference of the wise.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Proverbs 15:22. But in the multitude of counsellors — Proverbs 11:14. But רב יועצים rob yoatsim might be translated, chief or master of the council, the prime minister.
