Mary has been a valued Board member and key to Autodesk’s success for 15 years.
Autodesk, Inc. announced that Mary T. McDowell has informed the Autodesk Board of Directors of her intention not to seek re-election at the company’s 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Ms. McDowell joined the Autodesk Board in March 2010.
In December 2024, the company announced that Lorrie Norrington stated her intention not to stand for re-election at Autodesk’s 2025 Annual Meeting and that John Cahill, former chairman and CEO of Kraft Foods, and Ram Krishnan, executive vice president and chief operating officer of Emerson, were joining the Board. John and Ram bring extensive boardroom experience and a history of shareholder value creation. Their appointments have significantly enhanced the board’s breadth and depth of expertise.
With these planned changes, Autodesk will have reduced the size of its board, consistent with its previously stated commitment.
