Setting the Vision and Example for Our Company OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS Wilsonart became an independent company in 2012, when Illinois Tool Works Inc. (ITW) divested a majority interest to CD&R while retaining an ongoing ownership interest. Now, as a CD&R portfolio company, we are governed by a Board of Directors that includes nominees from CD&R and ITW and three independent Directors. This has enabled us to refine our vision and mission for sustainable growth. Our Board is collectively responsible for the leadership, control, development, and long-term success of Wilsonart. The Board monitors corporate performance, the integrity of financial information, and the effectiveness of our legal compliance and enterprise risk management programs. The Board works closely with our executive leadership team to create our company’s strategic plan and review progress toward our stated goals.
OUR LEADERSHIP TEAM The leadership team, led by Chief Executive Officer Tim O’Brien, represents functions from across our business, including product development; marketing; sales and customer service; operations; and support functions for human resources, information technology, and others. Together, the team provides day-to-day guidance and is responsible for executing the long-term strategy and achieving the established financial objectives. They also set an example for everyone at Wilsonart through integrity, innovation, and respect for all.
