  • Board Mentor
    Board Mentors are currently in their non-executive portfolio career, having operated previously at Board level. They are appointed to Criticaleye on the strength of their personality, commercial expertise, reputation, ability to build relationships and connect, as well as having the desire to support Executive Members as a Mentor.
     
    Each Executive Member is allocated a dedicated Board Mentor as their 'sounding board' to formally engage with on a one-on -one basis. The wonderful diversity of Criticaleye Board Mentors represents the great breadth of the Membership and the ability to engage leadership in its broadest context. It is very important that the Board Mentor has a wealth of experience at a senior organisational level and is very active in their plural career, bringing to the Member insight and up to the date 'currency' on national/global issues and Board dynamics.
     
    As we continue to grow internationally, we are particularly keen to connect with non-executives based in Europe, North America and Asia. “If you feel that your profile fits well with the role of a Board Mentor, please contact info@criticaleye.com
