Meet BizTimes Media’s Notable Women on Corporate Boards

BizTimes Media recently published its 2021 list of Notable Women on Corporate Boards.

The 10 women in this group provide valuable contributions and insights to the businesses whose boards they sit on along with making additional contributions in the community. Women’s board service has been growing steadily, albeit slowly in some cases, in recent years. In the early 2000s, just 9% of board seats at Wisconsin’s largest public companies were held by women. By 2020, that figure had grown to more than 21%.

Research suggests companies with three or more women on their board of directors perform better financially than those with zero women, including better stock performance, better return on equity, higher value multiples and better average growth, according to Milwaukee Women inc., an organization that advocates for gender diversity on boards.
