About the Program

The newly launched MIT Sloan Women on Boards in Latin America program (MSWoB) is a different kind of board education program uniquely focused on empowering and equipping accomplished women professionals with the skills and tools necessary to succeed in corporate boardrooms.

The true goal of MSWoB is to increase the number of 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 substantially augment the presence and effectiveness of women in corporate directorships across Latin America.
