Global research has demonstrated that business performance improves when there's concerted effort to improve decision making through diversity on Boards. TheBoardroom Africa accelerates the placement of women on boards with their network of board-ready women across Africa and beyond. They achieve this by defining, promoting, and sustaining the presence of women on boards.
TheBoardroom Africa is today the leading database of board-ready women continent-wide. They have a network of C-suite and Senior Executive Women, who cover more than 40 countries in and outside the African Region. This growing curated network is backed by a unique 'endorsement model'. They reach out and connect with potential candidates that have been recommended to them by Endorsers to ensure they are consistently drawing on women of the highest professional calibre in their respective industries. They then work with companies to create value and deliver diversity.
BOARD SEARCH WITH A GENDER AGENDA
TheBoardroom Africa has the leading database of Board-ready senior executive women offering a pipeline of talent unmatched on the continent. They are exclusively focused on delivering the highest calibre of peer-endorsed female candidates - and work with their partners to deliver diversity at the top and across their portfolio. Among others, they work with Development Finance Institutions, Private Equity Funds, Venture Capitalists and other prominent institutions looking to take the complication out of sourcing great female talent.
PREPARING THE NEXT GENERATION OF BOARD LEADERS
Their 'Open Door' program is a five day gender lens accredited Board Training & Certification program designed for women executives with little or no Board experience.
And their 'Sustain!' initiative provides access to training, coaching and mentoring support for women already sitting on Boards.
