Adriana Cisneros, Chief Executive of Cisneros Group, Elected to Seat on Ford Motor Company Board of Directors

The Ford Motor Company board today elected Adriana Cisneros as a director, effective immediately. Her addition expands the board to 15 directors.

Cisneros was appointed CEO of Cisneros Group in 2013. Founded in 1929 in Venezuela by her grandfather Diego Cisneros as a material transport business, Cisneros Group has grown and diversified significantly over the past 95 years. Adriana Cisneros assumed leadership from her father, Gustavo Cisneros, and under her guidance the company has become a global leader in digital advertising, media and entertainment, and real estate.

Cisneros will serve on the Ford board’s Nominating and Governance and Sustainability, Innovation and Policy committees.

“Adriana will be a wonderful addition to our board,” said Executive Chair Bill Ford. “She’s a CEO who has successfully modernized a family-led business by consistently thinking outside of the box and shattering conventions, experiences that are highly relevant as our team transforms Ford to compete and win in an exciting new era for the automotive industry.”

In addition to her longtime leadership of Cisneros Group, where she previously was vice chair and director of strategy, Cisneros has extensive board experience. She serves as a director of Mattel Inc., AST Spacemobile Inc. and the Paley Center for Media and as a trustee of the Knight Foundation, among other organizations. Cisneros is a passionate supporter of arts and education, actively involved in institutions such as the Museum of Modern Art in New York City and its Latin American Acquisitions Committee.

Cisneros earned a bachelor’s degree from Columbia University and a master’s degree in journalism from New York University. She is a Henry Crown Fellow and also completed studies at Harvard Business School’s prestigious Program for Leadership Development.
