Imposter Syndrome in the boardroom – how does a newbie director fight the self-doubt? And how can a wannabe director target a board position?
In this episode we speak with Dargaville business-owner and highly-deliberate governance professional Kathryn de Bruin about her planned, purposeful and impeccably-managed journey to become a director of some very well-respected entities serving the regional and national horticultural sector.
What did she learn along the way? And what lessons can she pass on to other Northlanders considering a career in governance?
