“The Women in the Boardroom preparation process has enabled me to land two corporate board seats. The various webinars and one-on-one sessions with Sheila helped me understand how board placement works and prepared me for my board interviews. I have been able to position myself as a competitive applicant for board opportunities. The process continues to work for me!”

Deb Elam

“I landed my first corporate board seat by reading everything that there was to read provided by WIB, watching all Women in the Boardroom webinars, and doing exactly as Sheila recommended.”

“You have done so much for my candidacy. I sincerely appreciate how hard you work to prepare women for board roles and importantly, gain open opportunities for us. These few words do not fully express my appreciation for you and your team.”

Peggy B Scott
Board Chair and Advisor to Public & Private Companies

“Women in the Boardroom was the inspiration I needed to finally get serious about securing a seat at the board table. There is a very specific methodology to finding a board position, and Sheila and her team know what works. After becoming a member, I was accelerated through a step-by-step process that worked for me in seven months – when I landed my first seat, which came through a WIB board posting. It was highly competitive, but I was ready…”

“As managing partner of an investment firm and a board member of private companies, it was the proven WIB process and the personal guidance I received as a VIP Member, that led me to obtain my first position on a public board. Without the efforts and tremendous support of Sheila Ronning and Women in the Boardroom, I would not have been aware of the board opportunity nor made the right connections to get it.”

“Aligning the goal to advance women with the needs of the members keeps Women in the Boardroom relevant. The membership benefits are broad enough to meet a variety of needs, yet flexible enough for each member to gain value in a way that makes sense for them.”

Laurie Benson
CEO, LB Unlimited

“My conversations with Sheila Ronning were, by far, the most impactful aspect of my WIB membership. Sheila is engaged and direct and inspires confidence. I truly believe my WIB membership contributed to my securing my board positions.”
