Boardroom renewal is on the agenda at Woolworths, as it seeks a replacement for Ian Macfarlane following his resignation as a non-executive director in March 2015. The retail giant has not ruled out making more than one board appointment. David Thomas of CLSA says Woolworths should select a candidate with retail experience. Meanwhile, Woolworths has rejected suggestions that it is also seeking a successor to CEO Grant O’Brien.
