Women in the Boardroom Event- Chicago

Date:
Monday, January 24, 2011 (All day)

Women in the Boardroom is an executive leadership event designed to assist in the preparation for board service – better qualifying and connecting attendees with the right resources. Our panelists are executives with for-profit board experience and a desire to share their knowledge and competencies needed for serving on a Board of Directors. Although the focus is for-profit boards, much of the knowledge gained can be applied to non-profit service.
Having originated in 2002 in a single city, Women in the Boardroom has now become an annual event in 15 cities nationwide. All current presidents, directors and professionals in leadership roles – men and women – are encouraged to attend as an opportunity to learn from the panelists’ unique experiences and network with other executives and board members.

The event begins with a two-hour panel presentation and Q&A. Topics of discussion include:
-Role of being a director
-Differences of a non-profit, private and public board
-How boards look for new board members
-Being an effective board member
-Resources to help you with your next steps

Chicago- Monday, January 24, 2011, 3pm to 6pm (registration at 2:30pm).
