Why Board Service?

Lucrative Opportunities

Corporate board seats often come with annual compensation ranging from $30K to $300K+, equity packages and stock options, paid travel, per-meeting fees, and high-level perks.

Elite Networking Circles

When you join a board you meet decision-makers (CEOs, Investors, Industry influencers). These relationships can lead to your next big opportunity; often before it ever hits the market.

Leadership Growth at Scale

Board service gives you a front-row seat to executive strategy across industries. You’ll gain insight into how top companies lead through growth, disruption, and transformation...insight you can bring back to your own work or business.

Legacy of Impact

Boards are increasingly seeking diverse, innovative, and purpose-driven leaders. You don’t have to wait until retirement to give back. You can lead, serve, and shape the future right now!

The Senior Leader's Playbook for Landing Your First Board Position

- Tamara Harvell, MBA

Former Events Chairman (2024, McLean County Arts Center)

Now CEO/Owner of TLH Events Management & Production

"Working with Nickquolette was transformative executive coaching that helped me step into true board leadership. She crafted a compelling board résumé that positioned me strategically for governance roles, but she didn’t stop there.

As I stepped into my role as Events Chairman for the McLean County Arts Center, she coached me through the real challenges of nonprofit leadership: managing diverse personalities, leading through influence—not authority—and rallying a team of volunteers around a high-stakes event.

With Nickquolette’s guidance, I was able to set expectations, lead with confidence, and bring people together around a shared vision. The result? We raised over $30,000—the highest amount in the center’s history.

Nickquolette also helped me see the bigger picture. She showed me how to leverage this board experience to lay the groundwork for launching my own business, giving me real-world, strategic exposure beyond corporate America.

Because of her coaching, I didn’t just pull off an event, I gained a masterclass in community engagement, executive presence, and purpose-driven leadership. If you’re an executive leader looking to pivot into board service or entrepreneurship, Nickquolette isn’t just a résumé writer, she’s the strategist who helps you lead, land, and level up."

- Tammy Chewe, M.A., Executive Certificate in Non-profit Leadership

President, Volunteer McKinney | Co-Chair, NAACP McKinney

Chair, Community Engagement, The Links, Inc.

"When I began working with Nickquolette, I was simply exploring board service. With her expert résumé writing, LinkedIn branding, and executive coaching, I transformed that curiosity into real influence. I started as a committee member, advanced to Board Member, then Vice President, and now serve as President of Volunteer McKinney—supporting nonprofits across Collin County since 2021.

In my role, I led the organization through its first audit, executed a full nonprofit and board restructure, implemented new policies, and established a 3–5 year strategic plan. But the real game-changer was Nickquolette’s coaching.

She helped me navigate complex nonprofit leadership dynamics, dealing with different personalities, expectations, and challenges that come with leading mission-driven, volunteer-led teams. She also helped me strategically leverage this board experience to build the credibility and community capital I needed to launch my business outside of corporate America.

This coaching didn’t just prepare me for governance, it opened doors. I was invited to join the City of McKinney’s Grant Advisory Commission after a televised interview, and I now serve as Co-Chair, reviewing and awarding grants to nonprofits. I also serve as Chair of Community Engagement for The Links, Incorporated, and Co-Chair of the NAACP McKinney Branch—roles that keep me in the community, connecting organizations with resources and partnerships.

In addition, I serve as a member of the McKinney Inclusion Committee, where I help shape a more inclusive, welcoming environment for all residents. It’s work that aligns with my values. And it all began with the clarity and confidence Nickquolette helped me cultivate. If you're ready to elevate your impact, she’s the coach who will help you turn service into strategy."
