Non Executive Directors (NEDs) often describe finding their first directorship as an arduous and time consuming process. More experienced NEDs suggest finding subsequent board roles can be equally difficult. Not starting your board vacancy search early enough, relying on existing or stale networks and not fully understanding the complexities of how board appointments are made can cripple your chances of being appointed to a Board. Addressing these is-sues is why our Board Appointment Seminars are so popular. This half day seminar, led by David Schwarz (an experienced non-executive director, international head-hunter, board recruiter and the MD of Board Direction), is designed to practically demystify the board appointment process. It will also provide you the skills and assistance you require to get ‘board ready' and onto the board you want.
