Women on Boards supports women on their board & leadership journey
About us
Women on Boards, founded in 2006 in Australia and the UK in 2012, is a thriving network of extraordinary women who come together as they commence or continue their board and leadership journeys. Our vision is to have gender balance and cultural diversity within board and leadership roles. Since our inception in 2006, WOB’s vision has been to increase the number of women on boards and in leadership roles to achieve a minimum of 40% women on boards and across leadership roles. We welcome the fact that many other advocacy groups have since adopted our founding vision. Many boards across many sectors have achieved this 40% milestone. However within gender we now need to look more closely at cultural diversity on boards and raise awareness and create opportunities for culturally diverse women to connect, network and interact with boards. WOB Membership is open to all. It's free to register with a fee to join as a Full or Premium Member. Advantages of membership include: - Access to full details of all board & committee positions on our Vacancy Board - Support when applying for board roles - Access to WOBShare, our member-only online community - Up to 30% discount on WOB events & workshops - Access to free member only events, such as WOBChat - Information & resources to assist and motivate you We also promise to inform, support, connect, mentor and encourage you in your directorship and career journey.
