POSITIONED FOR SUCCESS

BOARD MATERIALS AND ADVISING FOR EXECUTIVES
The path to the boardroom is complex. Having the right support can help you get clarity on your next steps, expand your opportunities, and shorten the timeline to your next board seat. 

Our approach combines deep expertise in the board ecosystem with personalized guidance so that you can be confident you’re on the right track.

  • We start by identifying the shortest distance between you and the board room. Meeting biweekly over three months, we develop your positioning, draft custom materials, and prioritize connections to efficiently uncover future opportunities and deepen your board network.

  • Over a three month period of monthly sessions, we refresh your board positioning, provide light edits to your existing materials, and identify connections to develop within your network to access board opportunities.

  • Once we’ve partnered on your strategy and framing, we can arrange quarterly check ins, ongoing edits and advice to maintain momentum on your path.

ABOUT FORTUITOUS ADVISORY

We work with senior leaders who bring significant expertise to their future boardrooms.

Our clients are typically C-Suite executives, or those who report directly to the C-Suite (SVP, EVP, GM, President) who are expanding their professional portfolio to join their first or next for-profit board.

The Fortuitous Advisory approach is rooted in understanding both the technical requirements of board service and the nuanced, relationship-driven nature of board selection. What sets us apart is the personalized support we offer to help you discover the unique value you bring to the boardroom so that your materials and approach reflect your genuine interests and align with your long-term goals.

Laura has coached hundreds of board-qualified executives on their paths to the boardroom.

Before Fortuitous Advisory, she led the Executive Talent Network at illumyn Impact (f.k.a., Him For Her). She’s cultivated a rich network across the board ecosystem, working with venture capital, private equity firms, and leading organizations.

Laura began her career at consumer tech companies including Google and about.me. She is a co-founder of Silent Book Club, a global movement expanding literacy in shared spaces, with nearly 2000 chapters in 50+ countries around the world, and is Board Chair at KUNC and Colorado Sound.
