As the financial industry continues to experience fundamental changes, the expectations for director performance have never been higher. For a board to be effective in today’s environment, its members need to represent a greater diversity of skills and experiences, especially in areas such as information technology, strategic planning, finance, risk, human resources, and branding. Organizations also expect their boards to represent a more diverse range of backgrounds and perspectives in order to optimize decision-making and enhance business results. To date, over 50% of Kaplan Partners’ board placements have been diverse talent. Our extensive work with boards as strategic talent advisors enables us to serve as a trusted partner who can objectively assess boardroom skills and guide discussions to ensure that the right leaders sit around the board table
