Increasing the number of women in executive leadership and on corporate boards in Georgia.
About us
Established in 1993, OnBoard is the leading authority on women in the boardroom and executive suites of Georgia public companies, and a catalyst to increase female directors and executive officers at public and private for profit companies. OnBoard was among the first organizations in the country to recognize that the mission to increase the number of women on boards would require an organized effort. We were also the first in the United States to field a study -- now in its 25th year -- benchmarking the number of women on corporate boards and the state of women leadership in Georgia. Our community includes those who support the growth and development of women to the highest levels in an organization and gains a national voice through the InterOrganization Network (ION). Our activity focuses on assisting women in raising their visibility for board candidacy, connecting companies with qualified woman for board service, and recognizing inspirational achievement through our annual Lettie Pate Whitehead Evans Award and Executive Leadership Honor Roll.

Charter Advocate, current Advisory Board Member, and past Lettie Pate Whitehead Evans award recipient Claire Lewis (Yum) Arnold shares advice for new female board members: “Don’t be afraid to speak up, but also make sure that your voice is heard. One of the benefits of having multiple women on a board is they can reinforce each other’s contributions. Before you accept a board role, it is a good idea to interview all the other sitting board members. And make sure the business aligns with something you are passionate about.”
