Tenure, Background and Experience of Our Directors

We are committed to harnessing the power of each individual’s unique differences and talent because we know this supports better decision-making, greater innovation, and higher levels of engagement, and this commitment starts at the Board. The Board remains committed to ensuring that the Board is composed of individuals with expertise in fields relevant to The Cigna Group business; experience from different professions and industries; a diversity of age, race and ethnicity, gender, and global experience; and a range of tenures. This approach has proven beneficial given the complex and dynamic nature of the health services industry. The Board believes that a range of tenure allows both new perspective and continuity and that the Board benefits from the perspective of directors who have served on the boards of other public companies. Our directors have diverse backgrounds, with experience gained in corporate, academic, government, public policy, and military settings. The Corporate Governance Guidelines require the Corporate Governance Committee, and any search firm it engages, to include candidates from underrepresented backgrounds in the pool from which the Committee selects director candidates. In addition, the Committee also considers directors with a range of backgrounds and experiences, consistent with our refreshment planning. The following graphics represent the diversity of our independent director nominees:
