Shownotes
Today on the Take on Board podcast, I’m coming from Banff, Alberta. I’m building on conversations from the Vancouver meetup with Nancy Maloney and Shona McGlashan about joining boards and building a portfolio.
I explain why resilience is key—since you’ll apply for more roles than you’ll get—and how perseverance and feedback help you persist.
I revisit Nancy’s early board interview story, reflect on my recent rejections, and share recruiter advice from Monique Fulmer (PeopleFusion): apply only if your skills match, lead with board experience on your resume, and separate board and executive experience.
I also highlight committee roles as a pathway into boards and conclude with themes of resilience and alignment.
