Not traditional recruiting
Boardsi says it is a board and advisory matchmaking platform, not a traditional executive recruiter.
Not a job board
Boardsi is built around board and advisory roles, matching, education, personal branding, and Executive Impact Reports.
Board experience
Previous board experience can help, but leadership, operational, financial, technical, entrepreneurial, or industry experience can translate into board-level value.
Membership value
Executives are not paying to buy a board seat. Companies ultimately decide whom they want on their board.
