Full day workshop. - Board CV intensive workshop
Directorships are highly competitive with the number of candidates exceeding Board vacancies. Getting your Board CV right is difficult and time-consuming, requiring considerable thought and focus. In fact, the more your Board CV looks like a traditional resume for a corporate role, the more you signal you are not ready for the boardroom.
We also deliver professional development workshops for organisations in our corporate subscription packages.
