[quote=Anonymous]Different boards have different strategies. First step regardless is to network, become a speaker on as many panels as you can, get noticed throughout the industry. Recent promotion is great - opportunity to get out there in so many ways. Volunteer - find opportunities that match you with other board members of various companies. And have one community volunteer position (the Kavanaugh - "coach" some rando team somewhere.) Meet board chairs and CEOs. Depending on company size this will happen at mega conferences during one on one meetings. Meet with your vendors CEOs and your customers CEOs and boards. Prep in front of your own board. Board seats are great - at the lower stage you can help mentor a firm's C-suite. At the larger stage it's $200k a year to meet 4 times and rubber stamp the CEO. Great retirement gig.[/quote]
