Take on Board
The blog
A hub for board insight and director wisdom
In 2019, I asked myself: “What do women need to be their best in the boardroom?” and the Take on Board podcast was born, which quickly grew into a vibrant community whose collective wisdom I draw on to share insights here on this blog.
Whether you’re aspiring to be a board director or already have a few chairs under your belt – the Take on Board podcast and blog are spaces to learn from likeminded leaders and find ways to elevate your impact in the boardroom.
Expect practical tools to support you in making high-quality decisions, real-life governance reflections you can draw wisdom from, and meaningful lessons passed on by podcast guests and community members. Let this be your manual for the things they don’t tell you.
Content seasoned and aspiring board members are loving
Ideas that resonated, stories that stuck, and tools that helped.
