“From its inception, Protiviti’s Advisory Board has been designed to assist Protiviti and our clients with anticipating and adapting to change,” said Joseph Tarantino, Protiviti president and CEO. “Julia’s insights on the global economy and her monetary policy experience will play an important role in helping Protiviti and our clients interpret and address economic developments.”
Coronado joins current Protiviti Advisory Board members Dirk Kempthorne, president and CEO of the American Council of Life Insurers and former U.S. Secretary of the Interior, U.S. senator and governor of Idaho; Frances Townsend, former Assistant to President George W. Bush for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism and former chair of the Homeland Security Council; and Evelyn Dilsaver, the former president and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management.
"The U.S. and global economies are humming along now, but business leaders know that prudent planning requires them to consider the potential longer-term challenges and opportunities of a changing global economy,” said Coronado. “I’m looking forward to joining the other members of the Advisory Board and sharing my perspectives with Protiviti and its clients.”
