About The Board Curators

Why The Board Curators?

For too long, getting the opportunity to serve on a board has been
unavailable to most, limited to traditional leaders with specific corporate
titles (CEO/CFO),  that are well connected, or are male and white. However,
business results have shown that diverse teams and boards result in higher
quartile business performance -innovation, profitability, and revenue –
largely because of better decision-making, less groupthink than homogenous
teams. Companies are continuing to foster a greater desire to seek
candidates that represent diverse experiences and industries.   We believe
that companies will continue to thrive and prosper when the composition of
their boards change and are inclusive.   
We are The Board Curators – and are committed to helping those senior
leaders who are curious about board service, and want to get curated to be
ready to serve as a compensated director of a public or private entity.

Board service can be in your Future – Join us as
We Curate You to Ready!

What People say about The board Curators

C.E.O Broad Visions

It has been a great experience with The Board curators concierges. They have groomed our team of Senior Executives in a way that they are now much more prepared to take the challenges of their next level positions as the members of our Board.

NBEC  Executive

I gained a better understanding of compensation structures and several things I did not know about types of boards and "best fit" boards.

NBEC  Executive

I loved seeing Daphne and Nichelle lead this complex and daunting work with poise, confidence and expert knowledge! It was a win for me as a Black woman to experience your excellence

The instructors were fantastic!

The interaction with the Board Curator staff and the ability to have Q&A / Open Mic with them.

I feel I truly understand the nature of what a board does (and doesn't / shouldn't!) do

I learnt more in terms of practical tips and strategies that I have from other materials and presentations. The faculty brought impressive experience, insight and an obvious passion to teach/help others. Please pass along my sincere thanks to all involved.

the open mic (Q&A) sessions were illuminating

Link sisters.

Overall, I think this was a great experience for someone like me, who is familiar with board work but needed dedicated time to focus on this. It was exciting to hear the backgrounds and experiences of the session experts and truly exhilarating to be in a forum with so many capable and interesting

Kadria D

I realized I am a bit "young" in my endeavors as I have not been in my career for 20 yrs+ as I noticed many of the other women have been. But I was grateful to have the urge to educate myself early in my career for Board work. If you stay ready you don't have to get ready!

LaVern M

I'd like to learn more about how to engage you for your services to help with the journey and creating a plan.

Our Commitment

At the end of our Curation process, the Client will: 

Understand what board service is.

Know if they are ‘ready now’ or ‘ready later’ for board service, and if they meet the general characteristics that are expected of board members.

Understand the general expectations of their role if they are a tech savvy board member.

Select which type of company/industry that captures (or doesn’t capture) their interest to serve.

Be prepared to re-describe themselves using sample bios and profiles on social media, elevator speech, etc.

Understand the process of board selection, including what they need to do to be considered.

Know what is required and will get "ready for the call".

Be taught (and/or coached) by an experienced board member.

Understand the various resources to further aid them in their networking, development and visibility.

At the completion of the Concierge interactions, coaching, and follow up, the Client will possess a more board-oriented mindset, compelling online and in-person presence, and recommended curriculum of organizations/courses/conferences to further enable readiness.
