#073: The New Age of Technical Board Directors, with Elliot Breuer

<p>In this new age of board directors there is a lot to learn. Many adjustments in the way we lead in the boardroom are a direct result of changes we’ve seen over the past decade in different industry trends. For example, technical skill and knowledge is an incredibly sought-after skillset in today’s boardroom; where 10-20 years ago it was not as highly demanded.</p> <p>Today we welcome <a href='https://www.linkedin.com/in/epbreuer/'>Elliot Breuer</a> to the podcast. Elliot founded Veracross- a Computer Software company- where he learned the importance of technical skill in the boardroom.  Elliot helps distinguish what differences boards have begun to encounter and how he’s leveraged his technical background in the boardroom.</p> <p><a href='http://bit.ly/BoardroomBound'>In today’s episode</a>, Elliot provides key insights from his first-hand experience building and running Veracross. He also gives us knowledge as to why he’s found success in the boardroom and how we can find similar success.  We discuss all of these topics and more on this episode of Boardroom Bound.</p> <p><a href='https://link.chtbl.com/sqxVQaFf'>Click here to listen now</a><a href='https://link.chtbl.com/sqxVQaFf'>!</a> </p> <p> </p> Subscribe & Review in iTunes <p>Are you subscribed to my podcast?
