What our
members say

“I felt I needed a lot of help as I was coming back from 18 years working outside the UK. The first thing was they [Enter the Boardroom Community] helped me formulate my CV.... The team gave me personal assistance. And the other hugely important help I got was in relation to the cover letter where, again, I was given some fantastic tips to make sure it stood out.... I can thoroughly recommend Enter the Boardroom Community. I was successful and got my first paid non-executive role.
Yolisa Phahle
NED Aberdeen Performing Arts
“I think it is really important when you are going through a career transition to invest in yourself and also to get an accurate appraisal of fit and readiness. These are the reasons why I am a member of the Nurole Plus community. The platform has a super range of resources and personally I’ve really appreciated the opportunity to expand my network, both through virtual and in-person events. "
Paul Beaver
Growth Strategist, Technology & Digital advisor & Non-Executive Director
“I am highly impressed with the Community's dedication to empowering candidates to become successful non-executives. Their focus on regular training and mentoring has greatly enhanced my understanding of the nuances of a successful application process and helped me secure significant NED roles in a relatively short period."
Aysegul Sabanci
NED Forterra Plc, TClark, Code for Construction Product Information.
“I use it to share insights, hear more from peers, pose questions to a 'been there, done that' audience, and consider different perspectives. Any non-exec will tell you the power of their network and this community has added to mine considerably.”
Craig Unsworth
Chair, High Speed Training & cazenove+loyd
"The community has been an excellent opportunity to step back, exchange insights with fellow NEDs, and reflect on what it takes to contribute meaningfully in today’s boardrooms."
