Women Get On Board to work with LHH Knightsbridge in co-designing and co-delivering Board development programs
TORONTO, Feb. 4, 2020 /CNW/ - Women Get On Board (WGOB) has selected LHH Knightsbridge to co-create and co-deliver its two innovative board development programs, Getting Board Ready (GBR) and Elevating Board Effectiveness (EBE). These unique board development programs are designed for women as they prepare to seek a board appointment and to elevate their board effectiveness once on a board. These board development programs offer practical insights that move beyond governance education to accelerate the inclusion and effectiveness of female talent on Boards across Canada.
These board development programs will be co-led by facilitators from LHH Knightsbridge, along with WGOB's Founder & CEO, Deborah Rosati and Corporate Directors in Residence. The cohorts will be small to facilitate peer-to-peer learning.
As the only truly integrated global human capital consulting firm, LHH Knightsbridge works with business leaders, executives and boards to maximize their impact.

"LHH Knightsbridge is proud to work with WGOB and support the advancement of Canadian women in leadership roles. The program design will leverage our extensive expertise in board and director effectiveness, as well as assessment, development and leadership coaching, to enhance the professional development of current and up-and-coming female board members across Canada," said Andrea Plotnick, SVP Board & Executive Solutions, LHH Knightsbridge.
"Our goal at Women Get On Board is to get more women on corporate boards. We do this by building a pipeline of the next generation of women corporate directors.
