Navient, an ACA International member company based in Wilmington, Delaware, has been named a Champion of Board Diversity by The Forum of Executive Women, the Greater Philadelphia Region’s premier women’s organization.
The Forum of Executive Women honors the top public companies in the Philadelphia region that have 30% or more women on their respective boards. This is the eighth time that Navient has been recognized as a Champion of Board Diversity.
The Forum of Executive Women’s annual Women in Leadership Report, which is a collaboration with PwC, provides an annual examination on diversity in the boardrooms and executive suites of the top 100 public companies in the Philadelphia region. This year, The Forum and PwC report a record number of Champions of Board Diversity, with 35 companies receiving the designation—up from 27 organizations in the year prior.
The Champions of Board Diversity were celebrated at The Forum’s annual Leadership Breakfast, featuring a fireside chat between Forum members Dalila Wilson-Scott, EVP and chief diversity officer of Comcast Corporation and president of Comcast NBCUniversal Foundation, and Doneene Damon, director and immediate past president at Richards, Layton & Finger.
