SESSION 1: JAN 15 (PALO ALTO) | JAN 23 (SF)

  • What type of corporate board is right for your overall business experience and expertise?

  • What are the fiduciary requirements of a director and how will your leadership role change from a management position? We will also have a segment on board compensation.

  • Understand the risks and rewards for different types of boards from directors of public and private companies.

  • We will look at the changing environment for board members and provide tips on how to position yourself to stand out as board-qualified.

  • Work on your initial Board Roadmap, learn what to include in a board bio, and how to establish your value proposition that you will prepare for Session 2.

SESSION 2: FEB 12 (PALO ALTO) | FEB 20 (SF)

  • Workshop your board bio and value proposition in a small group with your peers and a board savvy advocate.

  • Learn how to build a network of allies for your board journey and stand out as a viable candidate.

  • Our experts will impart tips on the interview process and questions you should be prepared to address.

  • We will provide you tools and resources to do due diligence on board positions to evaluate if this company and board is right for your personal goals.

  • Our risk experts will provide an overview of the need for D&O and indemnification agreements.

We encourage program graduates to join a free Mastermind Group to keep you moving along the path for your board bound goal.
