Sears Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ: SHLD) shares slid slightly on Tuesday after the company announced its newest addition to the board of directors. This announcement comes about one year after long-time Sears investor, Bruce Berkowitz, stepped down from his board seat.
Effective immediately, Alan J. Carr, managing member and CEO of Drivetrain, will join the Sears board of directors.
Carr has significant experience as a principal, investor and advisor leading complex financial restructurings, as well as serving as a director of reorganized businesses in the United States and Europe.
