Tracy is an expert on boards of directors and an invaluable resource for those aspiring to their first major board seat. Her weekly blogs provide invaluable board insights mixed with wit and empathy. She is, indeed, the "board guru."
Bob Vanourek
Leadership Coach & Consultant

Tracy provides unique value to those interested in becoming a board member or directors already in the corporate boardroom because of her 360 degree vantage point. She’s been a director, helped boards find directors, coached board candidates and consulted to boards. I’ve had great experiences working in alliance with her to provide services to women who are interesting in pursuing the board path through my own organization, Women2Boards. She smart, authentic, energetic and extremely knowledgeable about both governance and the pathway to the boardroom. She’s both strategic and tactical in her approach. She’s a fireball. She’s good to have in your corner.

Director Recruiting
In keeping with the needs of businesses, we now offer a completely new model to build boards.

Here's how it works:

The company decides what is needed from a flat-fee menu of services. Services  include:

·      Gap analysis 
·      List of qualified candidates 
·      Introductions 
·      Onboarding 

Pay one price for each of the menu items selected. If the service you want is not listed, just ask and we will customize an offering to meet your needs.

Board Candidate Coaching 
For executives that would like to develop a "directorship strategy" to gain a seat on a public company board or expand the number of boards they sit on. 

Strategic partner Women2Boards.

Board Evaluation
The Wall Street Journal reports approximately 19 percent of the largest public U.S. companies hired an outsider to evaluate their boards in 2013 — a 17 percent leap since 2010. Those numbers come from Spencer Stuart, an executive search firm. In five years, up to 35 percent of major companies could be putting "board doctors" to use. Financial and banking firms were some of the first to start making calls for checkups.

We have a number of board evaluation tools and customize all engagements.

Strategic partner The Board Institute.
