Other members of the board include Dominic J. Caruso, former EVP and chief financial officer for Johnson & Johnson; John Harris, the former Vice President of Business Development for Raytheon; Dr. Shirley Ann Jackson, president of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Janina Kugel, former chief human resources officer and member of the managing board for Siemens AG; Denis Machuel, CEO for Sodexo; Rahul Merchant, a senior EVP for the Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America-College Retirement Equities Fund; Jana Schreuder, former EVP and chief operating officer for Northern Trust Corporation; and Howard Ungerleider, president and CFO for Dow.
