Our panelists are executives with for-profit board experience and a desire to share their knowledge and competencies needed for serving on a Board of Directors. Although the focus is for-profit boards, much of the knowledge gained can be applied to non-profit service.
Having originated in 2002 in a single city, Women in the Boardroom has now become an annual event in 15 cities nationwide. All current presidents, directors and professionals in leadership roles - men and women - are encouraged to attend as an opportunity to learn from the panelists' unique experiences and network with other executives and board members.
The event begins with a two-hour panel presentation and Q&A. Topics of discussion include:
•Role of being a director
•Differences of a non-profit, private and public board
•How boards look for new board members
•Being an effective board member
•Resources to help you with your next steps
Currently, women represent only 15.2% of Fortune 500 company board membership and Women in the Boardroom is out to change that!
