Building Cross-Sector Partnerships for High-Impact Board Service

This session will highlight successful collaborations between corporate partners, nonprofits, and board service candidates, showcasing data-driven insights on how cross-sector alliances drive measurable social impact. Through case studies from long-standing partnerships—such as PwC, Mizuho, and others—we will illustrate how multi-layered engagements enhance corporate responsibility efforts, advance nonprofit missions, and create transformational leadership opportunities for employees. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of the business and social benefits of board service programs, backed by qualitative and quantitative data from our research. We will share key findings on how board service improves employee leadership development, increases engagement, and strengthens nonprofit governance. Attendees will leave with practical strategies for initiating, sustaining, and scaling corporate-nonprofit partnerships to maximize social good while aligning with business objectives.
