Finding Board Positions Workshops

If you wish to prepare for your search by taking a workshop, join us in May at one of our capital city locations for one of our Finding Board Positions Workshops. These will provide practical advice on the recruitment process when applying for director positions. Register now for Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney.

In these sessions, we look at how applying for a director role is different to applying for executive roles. You must be prepared, so developing a director career path and actively mapping out your plan to find board appointments are essential for success.

The workshops will provide you with practical tools to assist you with the recruitment process when applying for a director position. Join our experienced directors as they share their knowledge on:

• How they obtained their first directorships
• Guidance on the director recruitment process
• How to make your director CV stand out from other applicants
• Tips and tricks on the interview process for non-executive directors

As part of the workshop there will be a dedicated session on “How to write your Director CV”.  We encourage all event attendees to bring with them on the day their current executive and non-executive director curriculum vitae documents. 

Take advantage of this opportunity to network with your peers and position yourself for the next big step in your career.
