At Champion Boards, we offer a different perspective on building great boards of directors. Give us a call when you're serious about growing your business -- with the strategic assistance of a champion board of advisors or directors.
At Champion Boards, our research is focused on what DOES work: where and how women ARE getting on boards? What economic sectors? What geographic areas? What size boards? How are the women and the boards doing it? What are the qualifications of the women? their experience? their professional credentials?
The latest updates for 2009:
At the Champion Boards BLOG, you'll learn about finance, economics, and a whole host of exemplary women role models.
At Champion Boards, we don't hesitate to debunk myths and "old wives tales" that women might use to hold themselves back.

Advice from the Talented Women on Boards
Women who actually SERVE on public corporate boards of directors have been telling us for years what it takes to reach that unique level of leadership. Why haven't we listened to what they have to say? What are the lessons we could learn from them?
At Champion Boards, we look at the national and international experience -- again, to understand what works and why?

On A Personal Note
. . . from Elizabeth Ghaffari, President/CEO of Technology Place Inc. and the founder of Champion Boards.
You probably want to know more about me and why I'm investing my time and energies to advocate on behalf of other women to take
leadership positions on boards of directors in the 21st century. Fair enough. . . . more.
