Some key details you should know about our community...
VAB members, as future-ready business and organisational leaders, are changemakers. They have an entrepreneurial spirit and they want to help businesses and organisations thrive through their involvement in board roles; including as part of broader portfolio careers.
While there is no singular correct profile for the ideal VAB member, our membership committee assesses the following criteria to ensure that applicants to VAB can contribute to, and enrich, the experiences of their VAB peers.
Criteria we look at when assessing candidates:
C-Level Leadership (minimum 10 years)
Board Experience & Board Service Trajectory
Global Reach of Leadership Roles
Size & Impact of Businesses Led or Advised
Cross-Industry Experience
Entrepreneurial and/or Investor Track Record
Typically, candidates invited to join our community have stand-out skills and track records in a majority of these areas described above.

Joining VAB means joining a community
Our mission is to build a trusted environment where leaders exchange ideas, collaborate and contribute to the global board ecosystem.
Board and advisory placements may occasionally result from these connections, but our main purpose is to strengthen relationships and support learning among members.
If that sounds like something that would interest you, we look forward to having you join our community.
