Tips on Enhancing your Board Opportunities
Click on the links to see how an ICD membership can help you:
-
Educate yourself – When you enroll in a
formal director education program, you gain a thorough understanding of
your directorship duties and how you can be a more valuable asset to the
boards you serve.
-
Earn your accreditation – Professional
accreditation signifies a higher level of knowledge, skill, commitment
and quality as a director.
-
Meet your peers – Networking is an
effective way to share ideas, questions and answers, and best practices
with your fellow directors.
-
Be Informed – The more you know about
current issues and trends in governance, the better prepared you will be
to serve on a board.
-
Put your name out there – Organizations
won’t know that you are ready for board placements nor will they
know what your strengths and interests are unless you let them know.
