Here’s how corporate boards are increasing diversity and moving past the so-called pipeline problem (via Emma Hinchliffe and Claire Zillman for FORTUNE) fortune.com/2022/01/25/boa… #boarddiversity #corpgov
"Executive data firm Equilar Inc. released its first racial breakdown of boards for companies in the Russell 3000 index, which covers about 97% of all investable U.S. stocks... The survey found only 6.2% of directors are Black, versus 13.4% of the country." ksbw.com/article/divers…
Despite a difficult week for the black community, I am continually uplifted by the incredible wave of change that Brad Gerstner created with The Board Challenge. Cheers to the amazing team and to Harvard Business School for celebrating the accomplishments achieved and underway. #liftingup
❤️ Leadership by Brad Gerstner and the The Board Challenge impacting boardroom representation. So much left to be done, but tremendous to see progress underway.
While Corporate America is making some gains in expanding its #DEI efforts, there’s still a severe lack of representation in boardrooms. I encourage all companies to take the #TheBoardChallenge pledge and close the gap on #boarddiversity. The Board Challenge bit.ly/39s4MDT
