BoardCompanions is the network of independent not-for-profit directors.
Companions are experienced executives who are active as independent directors in the boards of not-for-profit associations. We share our business experience towards the boards of not-for-profit associations and we share the purposefulness of the not-for-profit towards the world of business boards.
As Companions we are committed to further develop our board skills through our collective action in BoardCompanions. Our members have followed a formal training program, we provide coaching programs and peer-to-peer learning and networking events
Companionship has a mix of characteristics which make this contribution unique:
- Companions are personally committed to their association. They are a member, sit on the board and share the “affectio societatis” of the organisation.
- Companions work both in the business and the not-for-profit world, and look for cross-fertilization of good governance.
- Companions seek high standards of governance and continuously improve their skills.
