Over the past two years, my colleagues and I, at Executive Advisory and the University of Chicago, have conducted research that has demonstrated that diversity is a crucial business tool in achieving corporate success. Corporate leaders have reviewed our research positively and, as outlined below, are taking bold actions to create more diverse boards. Investor demand for diverse directors is increasing in 2020. Goldman Sachs exemplified this when CEO, David Solomon, announced that the firm will refuse to take companies public unless they have, at least, one female or non-white board member. Similar commitments were made by BlackRock, Vanguard, RBC, and others.
