I installed TensorFlow on my MacBook Pro 10.12.5 from source code by steps described here. https://www.tensorflow.org/install/install_sources

TensorFlow itself works well but I cannot run TensorBoard. It seems tensorboard is not installed properly.

When I try running tensorboard --logdir=... it says -bash: tensorboard: command not found. And locate tensorboard returns empty.

Do I need any additional step to install tensorboard?

If no other methods work then try this one. It may help you.
1. check the location of Tensorflow

pip show tensorflow

It will show output something like this.
...
Name: tensorflow
Version: 1.4.0
 Location: /home/abc/xy/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages
...
2. Go to that location you get from the above output.

cd /home/abc/xy/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages

There you can see a directory named tensorboard. 

cd tensorboard

3. There must be a file named 'main.py'.
4. Execute the following command to launch the tensorboard.

python main.py --logdir=/path/to/log_file/
