Wanted -> A Board Career

"An easy-to-read 'how-to' without ever being pedantic-well written, well organized, and truly comprehensive. I've never read a book that starts with 'why a board' and ends with 'onboarding and the work really begins.' It's a great playbook, and like all great playbooks, it leaves room for readers to apply their own talent and creativity."

- Stephanie Streeter, public, private and nonprofit board director and former CEO, Libbey Inc.

"A must-read roadmap for rising leaders who want a seat at the table."

- Alison Levin, Private board director, nonprofit board chair and president, NBCUniversal Advertising & Partnerships

"This is by far the most comprehensive guide to pursuing a board seat that I have seen in my 57 years of sitting on boards. If I only had this book over the years, I could have saved myself thousands of hours of explaining all this to good folks who were searching."

- Dennis Cagan, board chairman, board director and former public company CEO

"Essential reading for professionals ready to step into board service."

- Frank Jaehnert, Public company board member and former CEO Brady Corp.

"If I could offer advice to my younger self, beginning on my high school Key Club board, it would be to read this book. The lessons within would

have saved me from many pitfalls and helped me contribute even more meaningfully along the way."

- Dennis Chookaszian, board director of more than 100 public, private, and nonprofit organizations and retired chairman and CEO, CNA

Insurance Companies

"As a marketing executive, I appreciate frameworks that drive measurable outcomes. Wanted , A Board Career delivers. If you're serious about building a board career, this is the strategic playbook you need."

- Lesly Marban, board director and chief marketing officer
