Finding your first or any board opportunity is all about fit. The ideal one is where your skills and professional passion match up with a company’s needs. This will ensure that your contributions are valued, and you are able to make a greater impact.

But you are looking for a statement that helps you stand out for the right opportunity, not just any opportunity. Your board bio needs to highlight the value you will bring to the company as a board member. All attendees will receive a copy of theBoardlist’s How to Write a Board Bio workbook.Gain actionable insights on how to define your value proposition and build your board bio.
