Gender Imbalance in the Boardroom: Opportunities to Change Course
The ION 2011 Status Report on women directors and executive officers of public companies provides a breadth and depth of regional information not available anywhere else. It addresses the issue of board turnover and the extent to which public companies continue to miss significant opportunities to increase the gender diversity of their boards. “Gender Imbalance in the Boardroom: Opportunities to Change Course” includes data from Fortune 500 companies in 14 geographic areas, as well as hundreds of small and mid-cap businesses that comprise the backbone of U.S. regional economies. Now in its eighth year, the 2011 ION report also offers nominating committees, sitting directors and executive recruiters specific suggestions on how they can increase the momentum of change.
