You’ve put in the effort to get an interview with a corporate board – networking, readying your profile and elevator pitch, alerting your professional networks of your desire to join the board applying for and getting that coveted interview. You should feel proud that you’ve achieved this milestone in your journey to board. However, the interview is only one of many steps to be taken in your journey to securing the board seat.

The interview is an opportunity for the company to determine the value you can bring to their organization and assist to achieve their strategic goals. During the interview, the company may ask questions about your background and experience to assess your leadership skills. They may also discuss the structure of their board as well as how well you will work with existing members.

It is essential to prepare for your interview by knowing your unique value proposition (BVP). You should be aware of what sets you apart from other candidates and how this can benefit your board. This BVP should be at the forefront of your thoughts throughout the entire interview. You should also be aware of any conflicts of interest you may have, which could prevent you from becoming an official member of the board. Knowing this information will allow you to address these concerns in a professional manner with the interviewers.
