In the past, attaining a corporate board seat conjured
visions of networking at affluent social events. What was important for very large, high visibility boards was having
big names on them; celebrities, or politicians – to add to how important a company was perceived.
Those days are gone.

In September 2018, California became the first U.S. state to pass the Senate Bill 826, mandating all public companies with executive offices to have at least one woman on their boards. Other states have since followed suit, introducing legislation to improve board diversity in terms of not only gender, but also age and race.
Corporate America is seeking a diverse group of individuals in the boardroom and this will increase greatly in 2021 due to the social justice movement, new regulations and the Covid impact.
Winning a corporate board seat isn’t easy. But if you have the right skills and drive, it is becoming increasingly possible.
Join our upcoming masterclass
Dr. Soaries teaches you some of his secrets from inside of the boardroom and shares success stories from some of his past students he has mentored all the way to corporate boards. In today’s world this is the best way for you to get a seat at the table and make sustainable change.

Over 25 years ago I set a personal goal of serving as a paid corporate director. Since that time I have served on seven paid boards and currently am compensation chair at two public companies and one GSE – and I love what I do.
I knew people that were on boards themselves. Not one of them were willing to help me achieve my goal. Those that did help me were the least likely to do so. I want to help others in the same manner that the least likely of my associates helped me.
So many people have asked me how I have been able to become a corporate director that I have decided to help others do what I have done – starting with a free masterclass sharing what I have learned.
Welcome to this experience that was not in my plans, but is now in my spirit to pursue. Hopefully you will benefit from what I have learned. Corporate America needs you and there is no reason for you to miss your opportunity to serve.
