Obstacles & Opportunities
 
The playing field tilts against you, the higher you rise.
California Senate Bill 826 seeks to level the playing field.

The law has created an immediate need for 684 women to sit on the boards of just the top 3,000 public companies, with many smaller companies also needing to fill seats.

By taking our program you will:

  • Understand your role as a board director
  • Broaden your governance acumen
  • Expand your board network
  • Learn how to overcome individual and institutional biases
  • Become an effective advocate for inclusive leadership
  • Build your personal board brand

"Opportunities for women will only expand as forward-looking organizations increasingly recognize the business necessity of inclusivity. Our program is a great place for women business leaders to acquire the tools, perspectives and networks required for effective board service."
