This study aims to analyze the influence of board diversity on the financial performance of manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. This research employs a quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from the annual reports of manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the period 2020-2023. The sample consists of 116 companies, selected using the purposive sampling method.

Management is encouraged to foster an inclusive work environment and ensure equal opportunities for all board members in strategic decision-making processes.
