  • Billboard Change Agents: Leaders Stepping up in a Year of Turmoil
    Billboard Change Agents: Leaders Stepping Up In A Year of Turmoil billboard.com/articles/business/9517071/billboard-change-agents-list-2021 By Billboard Staff 1/28/2021 © 2021 Billboard Media, LLC. All rights reserved. BILLBOARD is a registered trademark of Billboard IP Holdings, LLC Over the past year, the music industry began an extraordinary transformation. Heavy-hitting task forces were assembled to tackle racial inequality amid a wave of national protests against police brutality, while music’s biggest companies committed hundreds of millions of dollars to the cause. Artists and their managers, agents and promoters — many of whom saw their income plummet in the pandemic — were forced to reinvent their businesses as they sought relief from organizations fighting to help the live industry survive. Through it all, music professionals marched in the streets, encouraged people to vote in a historic election, brainstormed solutions on virtual panels and mourned the loss of family, friends and music legends to COVID-19. In other words, it didn’t feel much like a year for congratulating music’s most powerful people on how powerful they still are. So instead of compiling the Power List that Billboard has published annually since 2012, we decided instead to honor some of the individuals changing the business — both by advocacy and by example — in our first Change Agents issue. 1/39 This is by no means meant to be a comprehensive list of music executives fighting for justice or changing the game. It does not, for example, include the heads of the major music groups, even though Universal Music Group chairman/CEO Lucian Grainge announced an initial $25 million “Change Fund,” convened a social justice task force and promised more action to follow, while Sony Music Group chairman Rob Stringer drove the creation of a $100 million Sony fund to fight racism around the world and Warner Music Group CEO Steve Cooper pledged to steer a $100 million donation from owner Len Blavatnik to music industry charities and social justice as well.

Focusing on underrepresented racial/ethnic groups and gender in general and Black executives in particular, we examined the rank and titles of 4,060 executives across 119 companies in the music space. Those organizations spanned 6 categories of the music business: 1) music groups, 2) labels/label groups, 3) publishing, 4) radio, 5) streaming and 6) live music and concert promotion. Additionally, every artist signed with one of the labels studied was assessed for underrepresented status (White vs. non White; Black vs. non Black) and gender (male, female, non binary) as well as members of the act’s team (i.e., manager, agent, publicist). The key findings are presented below. Key Findings Top Executives & Senior Management Teams A total of 70 major and independent companies were examined for their top executives. At the pinnacle of power within these entities (e.g., CEO/Chair/President), 86.1% of top executives were men (13.9% women, n=10) and 86.1% were White (13.9% underrepresented, n=10). All 10 non white top executives ran independent companies and only 2 were women of color.
