Board Diversity: Top Tech Companies Without Black Corporate Directors
Maynard Webb, Chairman of the Board at Yahoo! replied to our inquiry about the absence of African Americans on Yahoo’s board. “I believe that we continue to put diversity front and center. If you look at our board, 30% of them are women,” he says. “I do think there is work to be done to include the diverse nature of our population on the board and in the company, and we work with the company and with the board to try to do that. We are very interested in continuing our progress on this important topic.”
