The Black Representation Increase Movement is taking shape in America.
The fact is that the Blacks in the core board of Directors in the Fortune 500 companies are found much lesser than the educated Blacks who can take such responsibility are filled in the market. Amazon (AMZN), Microsoft (MSFT), Starbucks (SBUX) and Zillow (Z) are taking initiatives to fill enough or adequate number of Blacks in the board by 2028. This is an encouraging initiative as the educational level and capability among blacks are much more than it was/used to be many years ago. Their competency is as good as any other board members. The initiates include discovering potential candidates and giving them a six-month training to groom them to take the task of board room guys and also connect with the corporate giving them enough exposure through proper networking.
