Corporate Board
Preparation & Placement
The Boston Club is committed to accelerating progress toward gender parity on corporate, private company, and nonprofit boards. Building on our decades as a groundbreaking and driving force in preparing and placing women on boards in the Boston area and beyond, we:
- Offer top-tier board preparation and placement programs, delivering education and mentoring to guide TBC members in positioning themselves for success in the highly competitive landscape for board seats — and to excel once in these highly sought after positions
- Partner with nationally recognized training and placement organizations, such as National Association of Corporate Directors – New England, as well as with national board placement networks, like The Leaderboard, 30% Coalition, and others, often benefitting from free or discounted rates for TBC members.
- Bring more than two decades of leadership and advocacy for gender parity on corporate boards and executive C-suites, most notably through our annual Census of Women Directors and Executive Officers of the Top 100 Massachusetts Public Companies. In partnership with Bentley University, we examine annual trends in board composition and executive leadership to monitor progress toward more diverse representation.

Mentoring at The Boston Club
The Boston Club offers dynamic mentoring opportunities designed to support women leaders at every stage of their journey. Whether you’re navigating a career transition, exploring new leadership opportunities, or simply seeking connection, our mentoring programs foster growth through shared experience and trusted guidance.
Our long-running Peer Mentoring Program, now in its 21st year, pairs members for one-on-one monthly conversations focused on achieving a specific goal. These relationships often lead to meaningful, lasting connections grounded in support and shared insight. The application for this members-only program will open August 19, 2025 and will be due by September 19, 2025.
Mentorship Circles, launching this fall, offer small-group discussions around a common theme. Guided by experienced facilitators, these circles provide a confidential space for reflection, encouragement, and peer learning. The application for this members-only program will open August 19, 2025 and will be due by September 19, 2025.
For more targeted support, members can also take advantage of our Office Hours—brief, one-on-one sessions with TBC members offering expertise in areas like leadership, legal strategy, funding, career transitions, and more.
