What is Boardroom Bound?

Boardroom Bound is a 501(c) (3) national award-winning organization. Our program represents a new way to introduce next generation, diverse business leaders to board of director governance.

Recent national events indicate that public trust in corporate America has again decreased dramatically. Reports point to a lack of accountability on the part of many corporate boards and the need to change how board members are selected. Until now there has been no effort from Main Street to align governance developmental steps – steps that include opportunities to transition non-profit board governance to private business and publicly traded company boardrooms.

Why Be A Director?

Just as military service protects our nation’s safety, business board service protects our nation’s economy. Regardless of whether the American corporate boardroom has been inclusive in the past, different times call for increasing diversity. Business leaders in the diversity aggregate hold the keys to America’s future position in the global economy. This makes now the time for tomorrow’s diverse leaders to enter governance training. Now is the time also for companies to champion better governance in their boardrooms by opening them to fresh perspectives and professionally trained directors.
