BoardLink provides the business community a unique leadership development tool that allows emerging leaders of color access to opportunities to develop skills that will expand their managerial experience and build business networks. BoardLink also enables leading non-profit organizations to more easily engage Chicago’s leaders of color in places where they can impact the organization’s mission. BoardLink is an electronic referral source where leaders of color looking for board opportunities can post their availability and non-profit organizations in search of racially/ethnically diverse board members can post their openings. Both groups have access to search listings, share information, and make a connection. BoardLink addresses an elusive challenge in the community. There is currently no similar referral source available to the city’s non-profit sector.
