Source Board Candidates and More for Free

“Within two weeks, Athena Alliance provided over 100 incredible candidates for Greycroft’s inaugural board networking session. Over a third of these candidates were selected to meet with Greycroft CEOs during the event and over half of the selected candidates are in further discussions to potentially join Greycroft boards. Not only did Athena provide top-notch candidates but the team was responsive, strategic, and creative. Greycroft could not have pulled off this event without Athena Alliance.”

“I am an Executive Recruiter, and an increasing part of my work is helping organization build Boards. It has been proven that high functioning diverse teams outperform all others. Female diversity is a key element in this success metric. Athena does important work in identifying, preparing and educating executives for roles on Boards (Public, Private and Not for Profit). Athena has helped me identify well-qualified executives for Board roles. The team is responsive and on point with candidate suggestions and have become my “go to” as soon as I get a Board assignment.”

“Athena Alliance is one of the top organizations in the country that represents talented women to serve on corporate boards. The Thirty Percent Coalition consistently calls on Athena for accomplished women to present as candidates for our members – Private Equity and Public companies – as they seek to diversify their boards.”

“We highly value our relationship with Athena Partners. When we share with them the skills and characteristics needed for specific board opportunities, they provide us with highly talented and relevant candidates we are proud to present to companies.”

“We’ve enhanced our network of top executive women who are actively engaged in discussion with our firm and our portfolio by 142 in the last year alone.”

“We believe helping our portfolio companies build strong, diverse boards provides tremendous value. Our partnership with Athena Alliance provides us with a unique opportunity to leverage Athena’s expertise in identifying highly-qualified women as independent directors for our portfolio company boards, and to amplify the impact of the female executives already in our portfolio.”

“I wanted to send a note of appreciation for the partnership of Boardbound and Athena Alliance. As I was looking for a board candidate with Audit Committee experience, it was great to have my Boardbound leaders collaborate with Athena Alliance in bringing forward several qualified individuals. From this slate, we were able to vote in Carol Coughlin as Audit Committee Chair for Vivos Therapeutics. It is beneficial to have this resource available to me as a Board Chair.”

“Athena has been a tremendous resource for me in my capacity as NGC Chair and Member at several public company boards. The Athena team is proactive, accessible and creative in sourcing strong diversity candidates for our consideration. “
