Why Enter the Boardroom Community?

The non-executive role is more complex than it has ever been for the last 20 years.

Information and networks quickly degrade in relevance as new challenges driven by technology, regulators and geopolitics emerge. The Enter the Boardroom Community creates a space for board members to connect, learn and reflect, so non-executives can continue to build better boards, together.

Who is this
membership for?

For individuals with at least one NED or Chair in a PE, VC, listed, regulated, mult-entity organisations or with multiple pro-bono board roles at large organisations. You must be a confident non-executive operator and value high-calibre peer connection.

What our
members say

“I felt I needed a lot of help as I was coming back from 18 years working outside the UK. The first thing was they [Enter the Boardroom Community] helped me formulate my CV.... The team gave me personal assistance. And the other hugely important help I got was in relation to the cover letter where, again, I was given some fantastic tips to make sure it stood out.... I can thoroughly recommend Enter the Boardroom Community. I was successful and got my first paid non-executive role.
Yolisa Phahle
NED Aberdeen Performing Arts
“I think it is really important when you are going through a career transition to invest in yourself and also to get an accurate appraisal of fit and readiness. These are the reasons why I am a member of the Nurole Plus community. The platform has a super range of resources and personally I’ve really appreciated the opportunity to expand my network, both through virtual and in-person events. "
Paul Beaver
Growth Strategist, Technology & Digital advisor & Non-Executive Director
“I am highly impressed with the Community's dedication to empowering candidates to become successful non-executives. Their focus on regular training and mentoring has greatly enhanced my understanding of the nuances of a successful application process and helped me secure significant NED roles in a relatively short period."
Aysegul Sabanci
NED Forterra Plc, TClark, Code for Construction Product Information.
“I use it to share insights, hear more from peers, pose questions to a 'been there, done that' audience, and consider different perspectives. Any non-exec will tell you the power of their network and this community has added to mine considerably.”
Craig Unsworth
Chair, High Speed Training & cazenove+loyd
"The community has been an excellent opportunity to step back, exchange insights with fellow NEDs, and reflect on what it takes to contribute meaningfully in today’s boardrooms."
