This event is SOLD OUT!!

Research shows that it is hard to find qualified women for board membership, so how do you know when you are ready to serve? How is the path different for a seat on non-profit board vs. a for-profit, or even for a public board? What skills, experiences and network do you need to achieve a seat at the table? Join us for the best programming to find the answers.

The keynote presentation will be given by Christy Uffelman, board member of NACD NXT’s Future of Board Leadership initiative in Pittsburgh and President of Align Leadership.

Christy will share a Road Map around three specific areas to prepare women for board service:

Excellence - It’s about what you do - Excellence is your ability to deliver quality business results and understand and implement the core technical and strategic elements that drive successful operations.
Experience - It’s about how you do it - Experience is building your skill set by taking on challenges and seeking opportunities for growth and continuous learning. You want to show a reach beyond yourself by leading with accountability and developing your team.
Exposure - It’s about who sees your Excellence and Experience – Exposure is building and sustaining a strategic network both internally (within your company & industry) and externally (regional, national, global).

Join us for an inspired lunch on July 10^th to learn beside your peers during a benchmarking panel discussion as to what innovative organizations – and individual executive women – can do to address the key question of:
