Want to maximize your time at On Board?
Booth alumni can attend one of two workshops the evening before On Board on Thursday, April 2: Jumpstart and Amplify. You can register for either of these workshops by selecting the "Chicago Booth alumni (pre-event + conference)" ticket type during registration. Dinner will be served at each workshop and a networking reception will follow.
Jumpstart
Meant to serve as a primer for On Board, Jumpstart is designed for Booth alumni who are new to nonprofit board service and are looking to join nonprofit boards. During this workshop, you'll think about the type of board you wish to join and identify how you can leverage your skills and networks when pitching yourself to an organization.

Amplify
Designed for Booth alumni who are experienced board members, Amplify will help you to explore ways to deepen the impact of your board. During this workshop, you’ll collaborate with fellow attendees on innovations in board governance, identify ways to integrate new ideas into your board service, and network with alumni who are already serving on boards or are looking for new opportunities.
