Your board documents (board resume) should be strategically designed to showcase your core leadership traits, which include your soft skills, subject matter expertise, focus areas, industry knowledge, and high-level contributions. Your BOD resume should also reflect your past and present board expertise, including your committee preferences.

Your board of director documents (board resume) demonstrate your leadership from a high-level view, whereas your executive resume puts greater emphasis on your metrics and specific accomplishments. Properly constructed board documents (board resumes) place the emphasis, in part, on your thought leadership, governance, collaboration, and innovation. Properly constructed board documents (board resumes) also outline your “focus areas” and demonstrate how those would support your contributions to a specific committee or chair.

Our BOD resume writing services team can craft a BOD document (BOD resume) for you that will garner the positive attention of BOD recruiters and nominating committees.

To protect the unique methodology we use to properly design board documents, the samples you see below reflect the quality we deliver to our clients; however, they do not demonstrate the actual proprietary format we use today.

Why You Should Never Submit Your Executive Resume for a Board of Directors Role

Your C-Suite executive resume focuses primarily on your role and the results you achieve in terms of metrics and impact.

A board document (resume for a board of directors role), however, is a 2–3-page overview and categorization demonstrating who you are as a leader and advisor.

Learn more about our board document (BOD resume) services here.

In addition, the format of a properly constructed board document (BOD resume) is very specifically designed and looks nothing like a traditional executive resume. If you elect to submit your C-Suite executive resume for a board role, you stand a good chance of being eliminated from consideration by the Board Nominating Committee, as they may not perceive you as a serious candidate.

We help our executive clients represent themselves as stellar candidates for board roles across non-profit, private, and public boards. Schedule a complimentary consultation with us here to discuss your goals.

Why Do You Refer to a Board Resume as Board Documents?

We include the word resume in brackets when referring to board documents because many executives would be more familiar with that terminology. However, the correct title for your BOD submission is “board documents.” Your proper use of both the title and proper layout and format of your board documents demonstrate to board recruiters and board nominating committees that you are a serious BOD candidate. Not doing so can disqualify you from consideration.

Make sure you submit the correct BOD documents (board resume)! Schedule a complimentary call with us now to learn how we can help you secure an appointment for the board role(s) you desire.

What to Showcase in Your Board Documents?

Your board document (board resume) needs to begin with your core major and minor skills. This sends a clear message to the board recruiter and/or nominating committee where you can make your primary contributions to their board.

Additionally, your board resume needs to be in the correct tense to add personalization to your BOD submission.

The first page of your board document (board of director resume) should categorize your subject matter expertise, thought leadership, and emotional intelligence profile.
