How does "Seat at the Table" work?

Your Route to the Boardroom Starts here

Most meetings use a case-centered framework. Participants are given the case to read in advance.

The virtual doors close five minutes after the start of the meeting. Try to be on time!

Participants are randomly assigned to groups of five. They have 45 minutes to get to know each other and to discuss the case. 

The purpose is to help you expand your board level network and discuss an interesting case with your peers.

The full group is then brought together to discuss the case under the guidance of the person who wrote the case. 

This latter portion of the meeting is recorded and turned into a podcast.

Membership in Seat at the Table is USD $2,500 for the year for ten sessions or USD $1,500 for half year. 

If you'd like to apply to be a part of Seat at the Table, please email [email protected].
