In recognition of Black History Month, an annual celebration of the history, accomplishments, and contributions of Black individuals who have made an enduring impact on our society, ISS-Corporate examined trends in the representation of Black directors and CEOs across U.S. indices. Here are some notable findings: 🚀  The prevalence of Black/African American directors has surged since 2019 across all U.S. indices, notably doubling for lower market cap companies since 2019. 📊  Growth in representation of Black directors has outpaced that of Black CEOs: over the five-year period spanning 2019 through 2023, the number of Black CEOs in the Russell 3000 grew by less than 1.3 percent. 💼  In 2023, Utilities led all industries in terms of Black representation for both board seats and CEO positions.

To date, 29 companies have taken the Pledge, signing multi-year contractual commitments and helping create the potential to shift more than $14B to Black businesses. The first company to sign the Pledge and join us on this journey was Sephora. We’re so grateful for the work we’ve done alongside them the past three years to forward this cause. One industry we’ve seen immense growth in Black representation is in beauty. With leaders like Sephora, the beauty industry at large has made great strides in making more inclusive products and centering Black consumers, as well as increasing supplier diversity and the Black brands that occupy shelf space at major retailers. A large number of our Pledge takers and our Business Equity Community–an online ecosystem of 5,000 Black businesses– also fall within the beauty space. That’s why we’re so excited to announce in partnership with Sephora, the launch of the Sephora Beauty Grant, awarding one Black business owner within the beauty industry a $100,000 grant to unlock the next level of growth and potential for their brand. As part of this grant, the Pledge team will help facilitate a bridge between the grantee and the Sephora team, continuing our mission to create an ecosystem where Black businesses and retailers can be connected..."

In honor of Black Business Month, I want to take a moment to celebrate our impactful supplier diversity program at Baker Hughes and recognize the new standards and best practices our team is setting in corporate supplier diversity programs. Diverse suppliers give us a competitive advantage. This goes beyond just strengthening our supply chain – it’s about harnessing their creativity and agility, which fuels innovation and operational excellence. 👉 Learn more about our commitment to supplier diversity: https://lnkd.in/dUHqmbTF #NationalBlackBusinessMonth #BlackBusinessMonth2024 #WeAreBakerHughes #SupplierDiversity #Diversity #Equity

#representationmatters 🖤🖤🖤 For some, at first glance, this is just a heartwarming #blackhistorymonth post from a big company attempting to do the right thing this month. When you dig deeper and listen to the stories from these #marketing and #salesleaders you realize its more than that. When you listen to the experiences of our #customers, the #surgeons, you understand the positive impact #representation has on the 🌎 around us, #business, #innovation and #employeeengagement. Intuitive could not produce this #content without a true #teameffort but I want to highlight the Black employees directly or indirectly involved as my next #blackhistorymonth post: Marissa Smith (Tirado) - Now a Sr. Product Manager, she is a relentless worker and #strategicthinker that impacts many areas of our business. ✨ Kevin Crawford - Kevin is a #successstory working his way from a #salesassociate to #managementdevelopment program to now #salesleader. 💪🏽 Candace Davis - This Sr. #bariatric #marketing #manager made a concerted effort to develop more black & brown KOLs. Two of them are highlighted here including Monique Hassan, MD, FACS, FASMBS, DABOM & Dr. Folahan Ayoola. Jocelyne Fletcher & Kamilah Brewton - these two #women are drivers of our #urology business and Single Port platform adoption. They also hosted and moderated the global event where this video was premiered. Tiara E. Wright, MBA, CBA & her team are unsung heroes at the org. Without them, we cannot provide #patients access to the best technology in the world. #weareintuitive #blackexcellence #blackatintuitive #keepmovingforward #seatatthetable #makeadifference #impactmatters #meddevice #roboticsurgery

What a powerful message created by Intuitive.
