To underpin its diversity campaign, e.l.f. Beauty, in collaboration with the purpose-driven agency OBERLAND, conducted an extensive analysis of the race and gender composition of board members from U.S. companies listed on the NASDAQ and New York Stock Exchange. This study included a comprehensive review of 36,957 board members across 4,429 publicly traded companies.
The findings revealed a striking statistic: men named Richard, Rick, or Dick outnumbered women and diverse individuals on these boards. This data-driven approach highlights e.l.f. Beauty’s commitment to fostering a diverse and inclusive corporate environment, which it believes is crucial for driving innovation and maintaining cultural relevance in the industry.
