"appointments of Thomas M. Brakel and Khurem Farooq as non-executive directors"
Non-executive directors are board members who do not work for the company day-to-day but oversee management, like an independent referee watching a game rather than playing. They matter to investors because they provide impartial checks on executive decisions, help shape long-term strategy, monitor risks and financial reporting, and guard shareholder interests—contributing to better governance and reducing the chance of mismanagement or conflicts of interest.
