Extraordinary Exceptionalism

At Broads Circle what we care about is Helping Women Make Money!!!  In an era of financial crises, it has not been easy even for the ‘best of the best’ to grow capital and drive revenue.  But we feel a change in play for women who have the motivation and ambition to drive revenue and grow capital, a time that offers extraordinary opportunity to achieve exceptional results in all metrics for women:

• Revenue: bottom line money, money in the pocket
• Capital Transactions: women enjoying liquidity events
• Power Women Capitalists: women sitting in power seats in the C-Suite and in the corporate Boardroom

The Broads on Boards 2042 Manifesto:  Calling all women captains of industry and other brilliant women!  Let’s take on the challenge that we will work our way into those corporate board seats, until we get to parity by 2042!  No excuses!

March 20:  3rd Annual Women on Corporate Boards
Sponsored by Levine Leichtman Capital Partners
Broads on Boards is hosting this event downtown LA.  If you want to power network with the women who sit at the table in corporate boardrooms, come to this event at the Omni Hotel and learn from corporate Board Directors of Lazy Boy, Jack in the Box, Conway and Whole Foods.  Ask them if they think that women can conquer 50% of all American corporate board seats by 2042.  Register by March 18 to avoid late registration fee!

June 5:  Driving Revenue at the Legal Speed Limit! - Sponsored by Latham & Watkins

Women General Counsels discuss sitting in the C-Suite and how to make sure you are driving revenue and growing capital within the law.  Our panel will discuss how to push the pedal to the metal on revenue and capital growth and still play fully within the law, in an increasingly regulated and legally complex global business environment.  We are currently working on putting this panel together–stay tuned for more details.  

Broads Circle is Growing!

Broads Circle is all about money and power for women. Driving revenue and growing capital is our mission, vision and passion.  So, Broads Circle is all about you. It is about what you need to grow your bottom line,  drive your revenue, and grow your capital. This group is about the relationships and strategies that will allow you to:

• Leverage your money and power
• Win that piece of business that will transform your game
• Get that deal that is a career builder
• Get that CEO, CFO, COO job
• Get on that for profit corporate board
• Take that company public
• Raise capital for your startup
• Sell that business for a great multiple
• Be that self-made woman major philanthropist

In order for women to get to revenue and capital parity, we must all lean forward and help each other as strong advocates. We hope that you will use this group, the power networking events, the Broads on Boards events, the Broads Pods groups, and the Monthly Huddle lunches to expand your network, and become an absolute Rock Star in your world!!! Come and be a part of Broads Circle!
