York 2019 Breakfast of Corporate Champions
Tech Data (Nasdaq: TECD) was recognized by the Women’s Forum of
New York for achieving at least 30 percent representation of women
on its Board of Directors. The honor was received during the fifth
annual Breakfast of Corporate Champions, which recognizes S&P
500 and Fortune 1,000 companies that exceed the national average of
Board seats held by women and are leading the way to parity by
2025.
“Throughout our 45-year history, inclusion has been at the core
of Tech Data’s culture and values, and it’s critical that we
continue to expand across the dimensions of diversity in every
level of our company, including our Board of Directors,” said Bob
Dutkowsky, Executive Chairman, Tech Data. “We are proud to have
expanded the gender representation of our Board. We believe
diversity and inclusion in our Board and our global workforce
produces more innovative results and provides a competitive
advantage by bringing together different experiences, perspectives
and backgrounds to drive our success.”
Tech Data’s current Board is composed of 10 directors, three of
whom are women: Karen Dahut, Bridgette Heller and Kathleen
(“Kathy”) Misunas.
Diversity and inclusion (D&I) also are important components
of Tech Data’s overall commitment to being a responsible corporate
citizen in alignment with environmental, social and governance
(ESG) principles.
