You will find all our upcoming events listed in our Event Calendar

Yes, we run a number of open sessions throughout the year and there are a limited number of guest tickets available for each Members-Only Faculty-Led event.

Transpire has a number of Approved Coaches that can be matched with you, depending on your background and objective. We offer a free 30 minute initial consultation/”chemistry” meeting, as it’s important a strong trusting relationship is built.

It will help you, but ultimately it is up to you. Transpire will make you “match-fit” to engage with the Board market by helping you identify/sharpen your offering and build your network appropriately and by providing you with up-to-date knowledge resources and “due diligence” information around specific opportunities but at the end of the day, only YOU can land the role!

Transpire’s Stepping Stones and Next Steps Programmes both include workshops on developing/updating your Board CV. These workshops are led by established NEDs.

Through the Transpire Connect community platform you can ask “due diligence” questions of your peer group. We can invariably make introductions to established NEDs who’ve done similar roles and/or to senior people in the organisation so that you can understand more of the background to the role.

A diagnostic tool based on a competency framework developed specifically for Transpire, and focusing on the behaviors exhibited by top performing Board Members. Your Transpire Coach discusses the outputs from this benchmarking exercise with you, together with your Board Career Plan, to agree on a personal development pathway.
