COVID Effect. Diverse Boards More Prepared

What’s happening? A  report by BoardReady found that data shows diverse boards were more ready to handle social justice issues.

Why is this important?  “No matter whether you’re looking at racial diversity, gender diversity, or diversity in age, companies with a broader range of perspectives at the board table did better,” said the report’s lead researcher, Rajalakshmi Subramanian.

How will this be important? Since August 21, 2021 Board diversity is a requirement for NASDAQ listing.
