Asking The Right Questions Before Saying "Yes" to the Seat

Executive/Board  search and placement firms as well as Nominating Committees commonly have a detailed evaluation checklist that is frequently referenced throughout their search and vetting process.

Yes, almost all Board Candidates will have a

handful of questions, but in most cases they are not systematically evaluating the Board in topic areas that matter most for success. This can prove to be a big mistake. Join us to learn the right questions to ask before saying "yes" to the seat.
