(Bloomberg) — McDonald's Corp. named a health care executive and Target Corp.'s chief financial officer to its board, saying the fast-food chain needs "fresh insight and perspectives" as it pursues a comeback.

Lloyd Dean, chief executive officer of Dignity Health, and John Mulligan, Target's CFO, joined the board on Monday, McDonald's said in a statement.

As head of Dignity Health, the 65-year-old Dean oversees a California-based network of hospitals and other health care facilities. The 49-year-old Mulligan, meanwhile, served as Target's interim CEO last year, before Brian Cornell was hired to lead the retailer in August.
