Blog Archive B-School Chart of the Week How Many Board Members Boast MBAs Although quantifying a school’s profile certainly does not tell you everything, it can sometimes be helpful in simplifying the many differences between the various MBA programs. Each week, we bring you a chart to help you decide which of the schools’ strengths speak to you. Last week, the    New York Times DealBook featured an article assessing board member pay on Wall Streetâ€"pay that tops out at $488,709 for Goldman Sachs directors in 2011. At JPMorgan Chase, despite its status as one of the largest financial institutions, directors received the lowest average pay in 2012, at $278,194. We thought we would examine these Wall Street governing boards to see if any members have earned MBAs from top business schools. As it turns out, 4/13 on Goldman’s board of directors are MBAs, as are 5/14 at Morgan Stanley, 4/8 at Citigroup, 3/11 at JPMorgan Chase and 5/16 at Wells Fargo. Of the 62 aggregate board members of the five institutions, we found that a total of 21 were MBA holders. Share ThisTweet B-School Charts
