How are nominees selected?

The Global and North American Nominating Committees have a rigorous and transparent nominating process for the selection of future board and committee members.

They look at two key factors in determining the slate of nominees are:

  • Commitment – the time and skills needed to contribute
  • Diversity – a healthy mix of geography, gender, age, ethnicity, skills, experience and length of service, so our boards and committees reflect the profession worldwide.
