Published Updated 3 Min Read

Noodles and Company CEO Dave Boennighausen has joined other top leaders in signing the CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion pledge, in an effort to create a company culture that is more equal and inclusive.

Less than 1% of Fortune 500 CEOs are Black, according to research from the CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion group — an initiative started by PwC. Only 25% of female CEOs are in the S&P 500 and just only 29% of employers have programs focused on the retention of LGBTQ talent.
