What Our Clients Say
Aug 30, 2025
So glad our paths crossed early on as I was transitioning to the “board portfolio service” stage of my career. Your advice and counsel has and continues to serve me well and I would be happy to speak with anyone that is considering engaging with you.

It’s all about connections. Naomi Kent once told me – Remember, every time you get in front of somebody about a board role, it is an interview.

Naomi was incredibly knowledgeable and helped prepare me to be a successful board member. I learned a lot from her governance and board- readiness courses. She quickly understood my skillset and introduced me to a firm that brought me on as a board member. I am forever grateful.

Naomi’s knowledge and experience regarding board roles has been very helpful. She is well experienced in helping executives establish and plan their board career and has provided me with guidance and networking opportunities to find board opportunities, and even made introductions to people of interest to me. Grateful and appreciative of Naomi’s mentorship.

I worked with Naomi to refine my board message, identify appropriate boards to target, and create a strategic approach to secure board roles. Her guidance was very beneficial in securing a board position at a private equity-owned company with one of my connections within just four months. I value Naomi’s expertise and advice and look forward to ongoing collaboration with her to achieve my board membership objectives.

Although I’ve served on a number of boards in the past, I shared my experience taking the course you facilitated. It helped me become more confident in my approach to board leadership. You do great work.
