Deckers Brands Featured in Report on Board Diversity

By: 3BL Media

SOURCE: Deckers Brands

DESCRIPTION:

"Without representation you lack the awareness and the prioritization of important areas just by their absence. Having diversity in the boardroom offers fresh perspectives that empower us to think differently about how we speak to our diverse consumer base and how we cultivate a diverse company of employees.

That perspective is invaluable, never more so in the last year of navigating multiple critical issues, from the pandemic to the wave of social unrest. The board helped us prioritize those issues and fully championed our decisions to accelerate creation of a DEI team and release public statements—their support gave me the confidence to lead with empathy and compassion. It would have been a very different conversation with a more homogenous board.

The board has to reflect your values and aspirations for the company. If we want our company to be diverse and equitable, we need to have a board that not just understands this theoretically but also lives it and represents it."

Dave Powers
President and CEO, Deckers Brands (NYSE: DECK)
