## Resource

For some directors, networking may feel like a chore. But it can be one of the most valuable practices for deepening governance insights and staying current in the boardroom. In this episode, Katrinka McCallum, a director on the boards of ACI Worldwide and Intrusion, and NACD advisor Susan Paley explore the value of board networks. They also discuss practical strategies for making networking purposeful rather than transactional, ways to balance time and resources, and how a network evolves over the arc of a director’s board career. Host: Susan Paley , NACD advisor Guest: Katrinka McCallum , NACD.DC, director, ACI Worldwide and Intrusion Related NACD Resources: “You Joined a Board.
