Catalyst Women on Board – Solving the Boardroom Diversity Challenge Through Sponsorship

Catalyst
This is an active sponsorship program for women board candidates to enable women’s advancement on to boards and to enable companies to find and appoint women board candidates. Catalyst Women on Board is an annual program in which Catalyst invites senior executive women, considered to be strong candidates for corporate board appointment, and pairs these women with experienced corporate board members who mentor and champion them for two years with the objective of attaining corporate board appointments. The women candidates, after a process of selection, require a company’s sponsorship to participate in the program, as it has a cost.
