On Tuesday October 27th at 4PM Eastern I will be interviewing Tate Pursell about his new book for Senior Executives Seeking Board Seats — A Roadmap to Your Next Board Seat.

Many executives are board-capable. But how do you become board-selected?

Tate Pursell, has served on 13 corporate and association boards, is a former CEO of five manufacturing companies, a private-equity operating executive, and currently serves as a Director and Corporate Secretary of Air+ and as an Operating Partner at MSI Capital Partners. He is also an Audit Committee Financial Expert, served on multiple Audit/Risk committees, and has chaired Compensation/HR committees.

In this book, Tate lays out a clear system for moving from "qualified" to "selected," including:

- Defining your board value proposition and fit with a company's future needs
- Targeting the right boards and building sponsorship relationships
- Preparing board-ready materials and navigating board interviews
- Running a disciplined, professional board-seat campaign

I have been reading Tate's book. It is filled with practicality and actionability. It is truly a "step-by-step guide" and an “actionable system for conducting a board-seat campaign.”

If you are considering a board role, this book offers a board-first, substantive roadmap grounded in real governance experience.

Please join us for what will be a delightful and educational conversation.
