BOARDView takes the BOARD CURIOUS to BOARD CONFIDENT!

TAKE YOUR SEAT presents a 12-hour program to help you fulfill your aspirations for board service.

Develop your personal board service journey road map. Get guidance on where to begin. Be intentional about balancing business, life, and your board search. Learn to translate your work experience so that it resonates with a board. Realistically evaluate the board seat pipeline. Answer the question a TAKE YOUR SEAT community member asked, “What should be in my backpack before I get on the trail?”

Meet other mission-aligned peers. This isn’t something everyone aspires to do. Engage in candid conversations with executive search professionals, diversity and inclusivity experts, c-suite executives and sitting board directors. Meet Black leaders and allies here to help and willing to leave their egos at the door.

WHY JOIN US?

BOARDView is designed to fuel your interest in board service and empower your ambitions. Our program doesn't require you to be a seasoned executive or to have board experience. If you're ready to take a seat, we'll help you confidently step into the room. We meet you where you are.
