Event Description

We are proud to be co-sponsors of the Black Corporate Board Readiness program with Santa Clara University’s Silicon Valley Executive Center. It’s well known that having a diverse corporate board leads to better business performance, and we are happy to support this initiative. Santa Clara University’s Women’s Corporate Board Readiness program (now recruiting its fifth cohort) has already helped women land board positions, and they are continuing our mission of building ecosystems to create authentic board diversity with the launch of this program.

The Black Corporate Board Readiness (BCBR) program helps prepare black executives for board service, and connect those candidates to networks to increase the likelihood of placement. The program is open to executives with extensive senior leadership experience or equivalent span of control (e.g., CEO or GM), who are interested in public or private corporate board service.
