“Age Should Be Nothing but a Number for Qualified Board Members” from Directors & Boards makes a good case for eliminating arbitrary age limits for corporate board service. In addition to furthering board diversification and tapping industry or management expertise, the post observes that the traditional career trajectory and retirement look markedly different today than years ago when many of the current age restrictions were imposed. As a result, older directors who are still fit to serve may be positioned to make unique and beneficial contributions to the board that can’t be attained elsewhere.
