LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The National Association of Corporate Directors (NACD) announced the 2022 NACD Directorship 100™—the most influential peer-nominated leaders in the boardroom and corporate governance community. Included among this year’s esteemed honorees is Moira Conlon, Founder and President of Financial Profiles.
"This honor is especially meaningful to me because of my high regard for NACD’s continuing efforts to educate and encourage its members to practice the highest standards of governance in boardrooms across all industries and companies of all types and sizes,” said Moira Conlon. “Corporate governance, along with the other elements of ESG, is a significant value creator for all company stakeholders—employees, investors, customers, partners, and communities. I am proud that my firm and colleagues have helped many organizations communicate their ESG stories and their plans for creating long-term sustainable growth and value.” Conlon continued, “Financial Profiles is also a proud sponsor of two NACD Chapters—Pacific Southwest and Chicago.
Over my years as a member and sponsor of NACD, I have witnessed its far-reaching impact on helping to define and embed the best governance practices in boardrooms that benefit all stakeholders. To be recognized for playing a small role in this important mission is one of the highlights of my career.”
Now in its 16th year, the NACD Directorship 100 awards recognize peer-nominated leading directors and governance professionals. Honorees are evaluated in four key categories: integrity, mature confidence, informed judgment, and high-performance standards. A selection committee reviewed the nominees’ histories of advancing board performance and leading corporate governance practices in accordance with established NACD principles. The principles are a framework that encourages excellence in areas that include risk oversight, corporate strategy, compensation, and transparency.
“The NACD Directorship 100 continues to honor those who have demonstrated exemplary board leadership and innovation in corporate governance,” said Peter R. Gleason, NACD President and CEO. “We honor these individuals’ forward-thinking minds and their ability to lead their board and organizations to current and future success.”
