Apple faces a shareholder vote on a proposal to increase diversity amongst executives and board members at the company’s annual meeting this month. The proposal has been put forward by Zevin Asset Management and individual shareholder Latino, who made a similar proposal last year. Of Apple’s eight-member board, two individuals are female and one is a black man. Just three of the company’s 107 executives are black and two are Tony Maldonado. Apple has called for shareholders to reject the proposal, claiming that the company is already working to improve diversity.
