METTAWA, Ill. Dec. 7, 2018 - Brunswick Corporation (NYSE: BC) announced today that Lauren Patricia Flaherty has been elected to serve as a member of its board of directors.

Flaherty, 60, most recently was the chief marketing officer and executive vice president of CA Technologies, which was acquired by Broadcom in November 2018.  During her five-year tenure there, Flaherty directed a number of initiatives including a global effort to recast the company’s reputation and positioning, and restructured marketing to enable the company’s first digital go-to-market execution model.  An experienced leader, Flaherty has served a diverse profile of companies and global technology leaders, including Juniper Networks, where from 2009 - 2013 she served as chief marketing officer and executive vice president.  Prior to that assignment, Flaherty spent two years as chief marketing officer for Nortel Networks.

Flaherty began her career with IBM, where she remained for 25 years. Among other assignments she held during her time with IBM were senior executive roles in the company’s corporate marketing, Software and Systems Business Units and Latin America. She also was a member of the IBM chief executive officer senior leadership team. In addition, Flaherty previously had served as an independent director of Xactly Corporation.

“We welcome Lauren to our board of directors,” said Brunswick Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Mark Schwabero. “Going forward, we will value her counsel as Brunswick continues to grow and capitalize on opportunities in the global marine markets.”
