ARE YOU AWARE OF HOW YOU'RE PERCEIVED?
Both your personal & professional reputation are important when it comes to your next board interview.
Do the following before interviewing:
1. Be aware of how others perceive you
2. Search public information & public records to see what is available about you
3. Seek feedback from your CEO &/ or current board members
4. Ask for the people on your list of references for their letter of recommendation now so you not only have them ready but will also know what they will say. It is also a good idea to talk with others that the nom/gov committee might reach out to & see what they will say about you
The perception others have of you determines your reputation. Be sure you're projecting your best self. Learn more about the various ways we prepare women for corporate board service at womenintheboardroom.com.
If you are thinking about getting on your first corporate board, I recently presented a webinar that covered all the basics including the role of board members, risk, compensation, time commitment & reasons to serve. Most importantly, I provided the steps you can take to get your seat at the table.
In case you missed this webinar on 1/30, you can still receive the recorded version complimentary! Just register here for 'Your Guide to Getting on Your First Corporate Board' and the recording will be emailed to you.
