Board Member Education In Arizona
Board Developer’s Board Member Education (“BME”)
Program is designed to prepare an individual for
placement on a board and to sharpen their
professional image for marketability for board
placement with either a nonprofit or for profit
organization. Although Board Developer does not
guarantee placement, graduating from our BME
Program significantly enhances a candidate’s ability
to be placed; and some of Board Developer’s clients
even ask exclusively for BME Program graduates for
their boards.
Our BME Program is a six-month advisory and consultative service which provides customized training and tools to assist candidates in growing as a leader and as an individual.
The BME Program has a comprehensive, 9-step checklist of items that are reviewed and completed throughout the term of the engagement. Some highlighted services provided through our BME Program are:
- Coordinate one-on-one monthly meetings between Candidate and Jim Hayden, CEO of Board Developer.
- Administer online questionnaire and assemble customized individual profile to reveal Candidate’s strengths, communication characteristics, leadership attributes, motivational factors, ideal environment, potential growth areas, etc.
- Organize photoshoot for Candidate to obtain professional headshot.
- Develop candidate’s Board-ready bio and audit Candidate’s resume and social media presence.
- Arrange candidate to aUend/observe a Board Developer client’s board meeting.
- Market candidate for board placement, coordinate C-suite introductions and provide one-on-one coaching to prepare candidate for board interview(s).
- Invite candidate to quarterly educa?onal and networking events to constantly improve upon established skills and foster new connections.
I completed Board Developer’s Board Member Education Program seven years ago and was placed on a Board, which I still serve on today. Definitely worth my investment!
