Different Ideas Never Come From the Same People
EQUIP YOUR BOARD FOR THE CONVERSATION ON DIVERSITY
Shareholder pressure to boost board diversity of skills, experience, age, gender, race/ethnicity, and other attributes continues to increase. To help boards leverage diversity and inclusion to help create long-term value, NACD has published Investor Perspectives on Board Diversity, which provides extensive comments from pension funds, institutional stakeholders, and proxy advisory firms about their views of the importance of diversity as a governance imperative. This tool includes detailed statements outlining current disclosure and communications practices as well as an at-a-glance reference chart listing board diversity priorities.
NACD has established NACD NXT™, a multiyear initiative, to provide boards with the tools, case studies, leading practices, and education necessary to discuss and improve board diversity and board recruitment practices. The entire NACD NXT toolkit, including the tool, Investor Perspectives on Board Diversity, offers a variety of resources to address boardroom diversity, including questions investors and/or management may discuss with board leadership, helpful tips from the investor community and NACD, and research on current boardroom practices.
The NACD NXT toolkit is only available to NACD members; however, you are invited to download a complimentary copy of Investor Perspectives on Board Diversity by completing the form.
