We are a network of 30,000 women, and some men, who are starting and shaping their board careers. The network includes those with all levels of board experience, across all sectors and professional disciplines. Our Ambassadors, most of whom are highly experienced NEDs, offer particular insight and connections to support our work. We are there to support you, to encourage you, to offer you honest and helpful advice. Our support is practical, delivered with a genuine personal touch. What we do works - on average eight members secure a new board role each week Women on Boards offers efficient services to connect recruiting boards and headhunters with high-calibre individuals who will enhance the diversity of thought in the boardroom. As absolute believers that men and women share equal reserves of talent and ambition, we are dedicated to helping organisations in all sectors to work towards gender balance at board and leadership level. Diversity leads to more innovation, better quality of decision-making and correlates with improved business performance. Our ‘Voice for Inclusion’ page collates key studies. Our ability to reach potential candidates from outside established networks is highly desirable for any board wishing to ensure they enjoy the proven benefits of diversity of thought. Our pool of high-calibre individuals spans those with significant NED experience including at listed firms, those with some prior board roles and others ready to bring their expertise to their first non-executive position.

I have always been fascinated by the answer to a single question: “How can I get the best performance from myself and others?” Even at a young age, it seemed obvious to me that it would be better to be positive rather than negative, which means: Goal focused rather than drifting Productive rather than busy Rational rather than erratic Organised rather than chaotic Confident rather than timid Optimistic rather than pessimistic Inspirational rather than cynical So, at the tender age of 17, I started my study on how one may become more goal focused, productive, rational, organised, confident, optimistic and inspirational. I read a lot, I experimented a lot, I observed others and I tested ideas to see which worked and which did not. I have been studying these topics for forty years. When I was 37, I started my company The Corporate Coach. I wrote unique training programmes based on the ideas and methods I had assembled. I framed my programmes into a system that was, and is still, designed to answer the same fundamental question: “How can YOU get the best performance from YOURSELF and OTHERS?” The Corporate Coach Group is based on three fundamental principles, of: Clarity Rationality Positivity These three fundamental principles form the bedrock of the program and each principle contains many subset principles, which we all should investigate, understand and apply in practice. Clarity; in regard to our goals, thinking and communication Rationality; in regard to planning, decision making, prioritisation and in handling conflict Positivity; in regard to our feelings (emotions) and in our personal relationships
