Building a NED portfolio is highly competitive - it takes most people 30 applications before success, and keeping knowledge relevant as a board member is increasingly difficult as the world becomes more complex.
Most networks just give you access to people or information. Built from Nurole's expertise placing 4,000+ non-executives on boards, Enter the Boardroom Community gives you structured programmes delivered by experts, insights on emerging governance to stay current from a 'been there, done that audience', and unmatched access to compensated and pro-bono board roles so you never miss the next career step.
For individuals with their first few board roles, who are now ready for more complex and competitive board roles. Also for board members who recognise the need to stay current in the boardroom in order to have a stance on emerging issues, and are open to learning from their peers’ experiences to sharpen judgement.
