FIND BOARD CANDIDATES

​WBL members are where diversity and globally-known health care expertise intersect.

Why use WBL to source board directors?

WBL’s network consists of the health care industry’s top women executives, innovators, advisors, and investors.

Our members lead life science, device, and biotech companies, and serve on the executive teams of health plans and health systems. Representing 40% of Fortune 500 health care companies, WBL executives have substantial P&L ownership in their companies, and many sit on audit, finance, or nominating committees on public, private, and large nonprofit boards.

Leverage WBL to find your next board member

All opportunities will be kept completely confidential until appropriate permissions are given and any descriptions to be shared publicly are mutually agreed upon.

  1. Share the details of your candidate search to get started. If you would like to discuss your opportunity one-on-one first, drop us a line at membership@wbl.org.
  2. WBL will inform our network of 1,100+ executives of your opportunity. If anonymity is an important aspect of your search, we can modify your posting or privately select candidates for you.
  3. We will then collect and share relevant bios with you. On average, we share 10-40 candidates per opportunity.
  4. You can invite anyone from our list of curated candidates to participate in your normal interview process.
