DENVER, Colorado, October 31, 2022 – Boardbound by Women’s Leadership, a nonprofit with the mission of opening more board positions for women in Colorado and beyond, is announcing the appointment of an Interim Executive Director.
We are excited to announce Sue Williamson will be serving as our part-time Interim Executive Director. Sue previously served on the Corporate Boardbound program committee and served on our Board. She has a strong commitment to this organization and board diversity and has a wealth of experience in leadership in corporate and non-profit organizations, serving as both CEO, Executive Director and past board chair.
Barbara Bauer, who has been in the role since December 2020 has decided to step down as Executive Director at the end of September 2022 for personal and professional reasons.
“The Board wants to thank Barbara for her meaningful work and engagement over the last two years in this role,” said Cheryl Campbell, Chair of the Board for Boardbound. “Barbara demonstrated a great deal of support for our mission and continues to be a supporter of board diversity.”
The Board is currently working on restructuring the organization through their strategic planning process. The mission for board parity is still vital for companies in Colorado and beyond and the organization is fully committed to their current Corporate Boardbound program cohort.
“The program has been well received over the years and we are proud to announce that the 2021-2022 cohort had a 100% New Promoter Score rating, said Cheryl Campbell. “We want to thank our Corporate Boardbound Chair, Kate Frazier, and her committee on providing such a high quality and successful program this year. We look forward to another impactful year with our current Boardbound cohort which started this fall.”
