"Networking Your Way To A Board Seat"
Why are there so few women on corporate boards? Why is it so hard for women to land a seat? The reason is that 80% of corporate board roles are filled through personal relationships. One woman put it this way, "When a board seat opens up, the men in the room look around at each other & ask 'who do we know?'" You want to be one of the people they know.
