Our 2025-2026 Program: Mexico
The MIT Sloan Women on Boards in Latin America Program is a different kind of board education program. Our regional program, which this year is focused on Mexico, empowers and equips accomplished senior women professionals with the skills and tools necessary to navigate and succeed in corporate boardrooms.
The goal of MSWoB is to increase the number of Latin American women actually joining—and succeeding on—corporate boards. To achieve this goal, our program also focuses on facilitating and fostering the formal and informal links, connections, and networks critical to the board selection process.
Our mission is clear: to improve corporate performance and profitability by accelerating the trend – and the success of – diverse voices in the boardroom.
– Shari Loessberg, Faculty Co-Director, MIT Sloan Women on Boards
Goals:
- Concretely prepare and support more qualified women to serve and succeed on boards.
- Build a connected community of board-ready women for community and networking.
- Constructively engage director selection “Decisionmakers” for meaningful improvements to the board search process.
- Create and selectively distribute to “Decisionmakers” a curated “Magic List” of elite board candidates.
- Deliver a comprehensive program combining practical perspectives from industry leaders with academic expertise from distinguished MIT professors.
The MIT Sloan Women on Boards in Latin America program is designed to prepare participants on how to overcome barriers that result in their underrepresentation on boards. Although the Program is designed to increase the representation of women on corporate boards, it is open to all applicants.
