Creating Opportunities for Diverse Communities

Creating Opportunities for Diverse Communities

John W. Rogers, Jr., Chairman, Co-CEO and Chief Investment Officer of Ariel Investments, believes that to create more opportunities for diverse-owned businesses and their communities, there must first be greater diverse representation in the boardroom working to see that opportunities flow into these communities. In this installment of Perspectives, NAIC’s online video series, Rogers shares his thoughts on why it is ‘critically important’ that there are more diverse professionals on corporate and non-profit boards.
