Ensuring you gain a board appointment via a 10 step online course – written and delivered by David Schwarz – the leading international board recruitment expert.

Gaining a good board appointment takes time and is challenging at the best of times but the rewards are significant for those who persevere. However, if your messaging is wrong, if you don’t understand how board appointments work and how to subvert these ‘rules’ then persevering alone is unlikely to be enough.

This course will ensure that your journey towards gaining your first or a subsequent board appointment is successful. Written and delivered by David Schwarz – Australia’s leading board recruitment expert who has over a decade of experience putting people on boards – will ensure that the time you spend gets traction and results in opportunities that you might have otherwise thought were impossible.
