DETROIT — Former Detroit Mayor Dennis Archer has become a National Association of Corporate Directors Fellow, the highest level of credentialing for corporate directors and corporate governance professionals.
As an NACD Fellow, Archer, the chairman emeritus of Dickinson Wright PLLC, has demonstrated his knowledge of the leading trends and practices that define exemplary corporate governance today and has committed to developing professional insights through a sophisticated course of ongoing study.
“We are proud to announce that Dennis W.
