What does investing have to do with your job?
In Veblen a large chunk of the content for our members is focused around "Investor Value" - If you don't understand what an investor wants, or how an investor feels when they invest in a company, can you ever really do a good job representing their interests on the board?
If investing is something you've never really paid much attention to, it might be time to start getting involved if you're serious about a board seat! (and in case you're in any doubt, it's also where you'll make the most personal financial gains!)
Have a great week!
