NEW YORK, June 30, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Vanguard Network today announced an interactive Forum for C- Suite leaders, exploring the do's and dont's of winning a seat on a Board of Directors.
Through the course of the pandemic, countless executives and leaders have reevaluated their professional goals. Some sought additional education and certification opportunities. Others have set the goal of joining a board.
The Vanguard Network, which helps senior leaders transform themselves and their organizations to drive high performance, will host an impactful session on the best path and packaging for modern-day executives to land coveted and compensated Board seats.
Mark A. Pfister, of M. A. Pfister Strategy Group, and Ken Banta, Founder and Principal of the Vanguard Network, will share pragmatic experience based on their work with hundreds of Boards and Board Directors -- no theories, no PowerPoints, only real-world expertise.
"Preparing for your Board career is nothing like applying for other roles, and aspiring as well as experienced Directors need to know this," said Ken Banta. "Establishing your authority and successfully marketing yourself in the Board vertical is paramount."
