Board & Leadership: the complete board candidacy
The specialist engagement for non-executive directors and board aspirants. The Board Pack, the Leadership Portfolio and the Executive Positioning Strategy, built by one senior writer as one governance-focused campaign: your positioning decided, your documents in board language, your leadership evidenced by design.
For candidates running a board campaign
A board seat is rarely won with a single document. Nomination committees read your CV, look up your profile, request your biography and weigh your presence, and a serious candidacy has all of it prepared, agreeing, and in governance language.
Aspiring non-executive directors
Senior executives pursuing a first seat, converting an operational record into a governance candidacy with every asset a nominations process can ask for.
Directors building a portfolio
Serving NEDs pursuing additional seats and committee chairs, who want their positioning maintained as one coherent story across every nomination.
Leaders with board-level visibility
Chairs, trustees and executives in regulated or public appointments, whose governance profile is examined well beyond the nominations pack.
Three services, one governance campaign
The positioning
The complete Executive Positioning Strategy, decided first: your governance value proposition, narrative and differentiators as a director, so every document that follows argues the same candidacy.
The board documents
The complete Board Pack: a board CV, board biography, governance value proposition and board competency matrix, written in the language nomination committees assess, in Word and PDF.
The designed evidence
The complete Leadership Portfolio: your leadership identity, strategic impact and governance exposure in a designed asset with infographics, graphs and charts, in PowerPoint and PDF.
The standard behind it
One senior writer through the Executive Career Positioning Suite™ methodology, so the strategy, the documents and the portfolio agree by design. Scoped as one engagement, handled in complete confidence, with an NDA available on request.
From order to final documents, on your schedule
Scope & quote
Share your background and the boards you are pursuing on WhatsApp or the chat. A consultant scopes the full engagement and returns a tailored quote.
Intake & materials
Complete your intake at your leisure and share supporting material: directorships, committee work, trusteeships, credentials and results.
Strategy, documents & design
Delivery is sequenced so the positioning informs the Board Pack and the portfolio, each element on its published turnaround, per the schedule in your quote.
Review and refine
You review, we refine. Revisions are free for 30 days, and finals arrive in Word, PowerPoint and PDF, ready for the next nomination.
No scheduled calls, unless you want one
Our clients span time zones and full diaries, so the detailed intake replaces the telephone consultation. Completed in your own time, it consistently draws out richer material than questions answered on the spot. Prefer to talk it through? A telephone consult with a dedicated consultant is available on request.
