Lisa Williams did an excellent job of guiding me through the process, explaining each step along the way. She helped coordinate the Leadafi Bio and was quick to respond to all my questions.

Wow. Lisa was amazing! She took the basic, blah bulleted points from my resume and LinkedIn page, and crafted a wonderful narrative which painted a great picture of who I am, what I have to offer.... See more

Jennifer is the first person at Boardsi…

Jennifer is the first person at Boardsi in more than a year who has made a serious effort to find a board placement for me. So far, only one company has expressed an interest and I have an interview coming up. However, the other companies she has suggested to me at least seem more relevant to my expertise, compared to others that have been suggested to me. So I appreciate her efforts.

From Experience to Essence — Expertly Captured

I had an outstanding experience working with Lisa Williams through the Leadafi process.

Lisa has an exceptional ability to quickly distill not just what you’ve done, but who you are as a leader. She captured the essence of me — my values, voice, and leadership style — not just my résumé. That level of insight is rare.

The process itself was structured, efficient, and remarkably easy. Lisa asks sharp questions, listens deeply, and translates everything into clear, compelling messaging that feels authentic and executive-ready.

The end result was a bio and positioning I’m genuinely proud to share — polished, differentiated, and unmistakably me.

If you’re serious about elevating your leadership presence, Lisa and Leadafi deliver.

Professional interactions

I have had a number of calls with various staff at Boardsi - each one has been professional and very thorough.

My bio that was written by boardsi after numerous phone calls to get to know me is extremely well written.

I was approached for an interview

I was approached for an interview. No name, no company, absolutely no information upfront. Was asked for a phone call of 15 minutes. Got 20 reminders and when the time was there nobody called. Very unprofessional for a company promising roles at board level.

Promises Didn’t Match Outcomes — Not a Worthwhile Investment

I used Boardsi for approximately 13 months and spent around $780 during that time. Unfortunately, the return on investment and overall progress were extremely disappointing.

Over the entire engagement, only three opportunities advanced to a next step. One turned out to be a scam company, one was not actually seeking board members but rather consultants to join their network, and the third—a nonprofit—failed to respond to multiple attempts to schedule a meeting and later claimed they “decided to go in a different direction, despite the lack of communication on their end.

After more than a year, only one opportunity could even be considered potentially legitimate. That level of outcome does not justify the time, cost, or expectations set by the service. Communication slowed significantly over time, with long gaps between updates, and there was no clear adjustment in strategy despite the lack of results.

At this point, the service feels less like a strategic board-placement solution and more like a recurring expense with little accountability for outcomes. Unless there are major changes to how opportunities are vetted, matched, and followed up on, I cannot recommend Boardsi to professionals seeking serious board or advisory roles.

Focused and easy engagement

The company is very easy to work with and is knowledgeable about the things that should be emphasized and highlighted in external communications.

Lisa hit it right out of the park

Lisa hit it right out of the park. She was timely and professional. As soon, as I made a few revisions, they were completed and ready to go immediate. The turnaround time was better than I expected.

Lisa was...wow

Wow. Lisa was amazing! She took the basic, blah bulleted points from my resume and LinkedIn page, and crafted a wonderful narrative which painted a great picture of who I am, what I have to offer. I'm a marketer, but could not possibly write something as wonderful as what she did. She is very talented, is a real pro, and was so responsive, communicative, and friendly.
