Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An outside director can bring new perspective and diverse knowledge to the board of directors. As they are not associated with the company, they can provide unbiased opinions and suggestions for the benefit of the shareholders. Other members listed are either employees or part of the senior management, so they may not have a completely independent viewpoint.
