Today we are talking all about board seats. Women hold about 20% of board seats at the top 3,000 publicly traded companies…it’s an abysmal statistic! We want women not just founding companies but advising and helping lead them.
We cover:
- How Athena helps women advance to the highest levels of leadership
- What aspects of a founder bring long term success
- What aspects make a good Board Member
- And what are some steps you can take today (whether you are new in your career or further along) to put yourself in a position to get on boards
