Lifting As We Rise

Preparing, Placing and Propelling Top Executive Talent

Black Women on Boards (BWOB) is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that aims to remove the obstacles Black female executives face when pursuing board membership.

How We're Different

There's no shortage of incredible professional organizations laser focused on propelling top talent and rising stars into even greater leadership responsibilities. So why one more? We noticed a significant opportunity for black women specifically and public companies in particular. We are a nonprofit global membership organization that works 1:1 with our members, with no plans for explosive growth. Rather, our strength is in the intimacy of deep bonds among a few hundred executive women shaping the future.

Getting Things Done

We wake up every day excited to be on this journey that is so deeply rewarding personally and deeply gratifying professionally. We are a lean team that moves fast, balanced with our natural inclination to dream big. Inherent in membership is the expectation of championing the next generation in transformative ways. That's how we grow. That's how we win.

WHAT CEOS ARE SAYING

“I have never in my life met such an amazing and inspiring group of people and board candidates. Every company that partners with BWOB will benefit 10X as much as the women themselves. I could not be more supportive of your mission. Diverse world views, voices and perspectives simply make us better.”
