Discussion
The article has a very short lead and would require expansion.
The 'See Also' section would have to be wikilinks only, not prose.
When I saw the last 4 sections, I actually got confused. I am going to change it to how it should be, in simple terms, if you agree.
Thanks! As for your point #3 (4 sections) I tried to follow the example in the MoS esp.
WP:FOOTERS. I revived the dead link. I'll come back to the other points this weekend. Thanks again.

OK, thanks. I expanded the lead and the body text and added several new references from reliable sources like the The Boston Globe, MIT, Ernst & Young, etc. How is it now? Getting there?

It is getting there, but the lede still needs to be expanded! It would need at least two paragraphs to make a fine lede.
'Corporate and non-profit organization governance' is only one sentence, could that be expanded, or at least merged then with another section. – Plarem(

Added a cite for the revenue. When you say "more sections" do you mean divide the existing content into more sections? Or that the article is too short (i.e that it needs both more content and more sections)? If the latter, how much longer (50% 2x, 3x) roughly? I looked in the GAN criteria and the MoS and couldn't find any guidence on overall length. Any pointers?

I am not an expert in this area, so I would not know how much content is available on him,, so, when I say, "More potential sections", I mean, are there any more sections that could be added. So, are there any more potential sections? – Plarem(

It covers all the aspects I'm aware of. I looked at the GA criteria namely:
Broad in its coverage:
(a) it addresses the main aspects of the topic;(note 4) and
(b) it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
(note 4) This requirement is significantly weaker than the "comprehensiveness" required of featured articles; it allows shorter articles, articles that do not cover every major fact or detail, and overviews of large topics.
^ Compliance with other aspects of the Manual of Style, or the
Manual of Style mainpage or subpages of the guides listed, is not required for good articles.
^This requirement is significantly weaker than the "comprehensiveness" required of
featured articles; it allows shorter articles, articles that do not cover every major fact or detail, and overviews of large topics.
^Vandalism reversions, proposals to split or merge content, good faith improvements to the page (such as
copy editing), and changes based on reviewers' suggestions do not apply. Nominations for articles that are unstable because of unconstructive editing should be placed on hold.
^Other media, such as video and
sound clips, are also covered by this criterion.
^The presence of images is not, in itself, a requirement. However, if images (or other media) with acceptable copyright status are appropriate and readily available, then some such images should be provided.
