Bringing
Increased Independence, Effectiveness and Diversity to Today’s
Corporate Boards
It’s a fact:
women make up 47% of the U.S. labor force, nearly 16% of the Fortune
500 corporate officers
and 48% of all stock market
investors. Yet, women make up less than 14% of directors on Fortune
1000 boards.
Minorities comprise nearly 29% of the U.S. population, but fill less
than 7% of all board seats.
The Directors’ Council helps companies around the globe bring
increased independence and effectiveness to the governance process.
The Council partners work collaboratively to find, develop and place
a new, diverse generation of directors on corporate boards, drawn
primarily from the largely untapped pool of talented and qualified
women and minorities. The Directors’ Council aims to fuel innovation
and progress, and ensure that tomorrow’s boards more accurately
reflect the face of the customers, employees and stockholders they
serve.
Our founders are personally
involved in your search, using our extensive networks, personal
contacts and first-hand
