Your Journey to (and in) the Boardroom Part 6 – A Hybrid Event

Interested in board service?

Join MedtechWOMEN in person in Minneapolis or virtually for the sixth event in a series on “Your Journey to (and in) the Boardroom,” curated by MedtechWOMEN’s Board Development Committee.

It’s your first board meeting – where the rubber finally meets the road. Prior to the meeting, you will have some work to do. Like everything else in life, preparation is key. Reading your board package is but one part of that process. Our accomplished panel will share their insights on readying oneself for that very first board meeting. Topics to be covered include:

• Onboarding
• Reviewing the materials
• Understanding the meeting structure and process
• Reading the room
• Debriefing afterward

Tuesday, May 16, 2023 – 5:00-7:00pm CT / 3:00-5:00pm PT

· 5:00-5:30pm CT – In-Person Networking at Robins Kaplan, Minneapolis, MN

· 5:30-6:30pm CT – Hybrid Panel Discussion – Virtual Event Begins

· 6:30-7:00pm CT – Additional In-Person Networking

Moderator:

• Anne Sample, CEO of Navigate Forward, Inc., Advisor to CEO’s and CHRO’s, Talent Development and Board Readiness

Panelists:

• Lisa Wipperman Heine, Independent Board Member, Medtech Executive
• Kathy Tune, CFO/COO & Board Chair, Marani Health, Inc. 
•  Amy Ronneberg , Chief Executive Officer, NMDP – Be The Match

Some key takeaways from our speakers: 

• “Prepare by asking what have been your pain points historically and what is your strategic vision going forward.” Kathy Tune
• “You don’t want to be pushing the politics and dynamics in a direction they don’t want to go, so it can be valuable to have transparent conversations with the CEO in advance.” Amy Ronneberg
• I’m not going to ask a question just to ask a question.  I do my homework and try to stay focused on asking real questions as well as listening and learning.” Lisa Wipperman Heine
