How to secure your first board seat

About us

If you’re interested in becoming a director of a company you will have heard stories of those that attend just four Board meetings a year and get paid hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars a year. These directors often sit on multiple Boards, they have an enviable rolodex of top CEO’s, Investors & politicians, get flown to Davos, invited to speak at elusive events and have an awareness and understanding of what is happening in business months or sometimes years before it hits the mainstream. But they didn’t start out like that. So how do you start? How do you get on a Board when positions are only offered to those who already have board director experience? – The Veblen Director Program is designed to get you that elusive first Director position and to provide you with an enviable global network of other Directors that you can call on at will for the rest of your career. If you are accepted on the Veblen course you will be assigned your own personal Board of Directors for one year with the specific outcome of getting you your first board seat. You will have a clear 10 year strategy to leverage that first position into your dream, Tier 1 NED position. You will understand the current weaknesses and requirements of tens of thousands of public Boards around the world and will have the tools to go in there and deliver real value on day 1 of your appointment. If you would like to learn more about what being a Veblen Director entails and more specifically, how you can put yourself in a position to be invited to multiple boards then join our upcoming webinar.
