Is that what a board is for, though? I agree that additional perspective could help Facebook address systemic faults but I'm not sure adding somebody to the board is how you go about doing it. I'm not familiar with principles and processes of executive leadership though.
- otterley 7y agoThe Board of Directors is the most powerful group of people in a corporation. They have the power to hire and fire executives (including the CEO). They set the top-level direction of the company. If the Board isn't entrusted to address systemic faults, then I can't think of a more appropriate place within the company. That said, FB is an anomaly -- Mark Zuckerberg has special voting rights that prevent the Board from overruling him on any question. So for that company, it really doesn't matter who's on the Board; Zuck can do whatever he pleases.
