Women in the boardroomA global perspective |
In many countries, gender – including the specific question of quotas for women on corporate boards – has become a key area of focus in the boardroom diversity conversation.
From a corporate governance perspective, including more individuals with different backgrounds on boards of directors could improve board effectiveness; harnessing strength from a range of experiences allows boards to bring a more diverse perspective to problems.
In its second edition of Women in the boardroom: A global perspective, Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited’s (DTTL) Global Center for Corporate Governance seeks to understand the state of legislation, regulation, and voluntary initiatives on this topic around the world.
