Being on a board can be interesting, valuable and exciting. Yet it can also be lonely, challenging and hard. Each week I talk to women who have been there, done that. Together we'll discover what we need to take on board to be your best in the boardroom. https://helgasvendsen.com.au/take-on-board-podcast/ Hosted on Acast.
