Board of Directors

Strategy Overview

Board Composition

Whenever the Corporate Governance Committee evaluates a potential candidate for Board membership, it considers that individual in the context of the composition of the Board as a whole. The Corporate Governance Committee is committed to maintaining a Board with a variety of perspectives and experiences that enhance the quality of decision making. Accordingly, the Board believes that its membership should include directors with a variety of backgrounds, attributes, and experiences. The Board demonstrates a varied and qualified composition in the following ways:

  • All but one of Arrow’s directors (i.e., Mr. Austen) are independent, and all of the directors have a broad range of experience in varying fields, including, among others, software development and sales, business strategy consulting, hospitality services, intellectual property, electronics and computer hardware manufacturing and distribution, business services, telecommunication products, cloud services, artificial intelligence, and research and development.
  • Seven of Arrow’s directors hold or have held directorships at other U.S. public companies.
  • Seven of Arrow’s directors have served as chief executive officers, and all have demonstrated exceptional leadership, management, and strategic thinking capabilities gained from deep experience leading global companies.
  • 25% of Arrow’s directors are women, and 13% are racially/ethnically diverse.
  • The Board has retained a recruitment firm to assist the Corporate Governance Committee in actively identifying and evaluating qualified Board candidates.
