Cultural Shift On Boards
What Next For Women On Boards?
Events
We have scheduled two extremely successful Women on Boards Conferences this year, one in April 2014 and again this February, uniting FTSE 350 Chairmen with potential women board candidates. Each Chairman was invited to nominate two talented women from their own organisation, capable of serving on boards in the future. Over 100 women have been profiled in this way, benefitting from various workshop sessions, as well as being introduced to other Chairmen who share the benefit of their experience and offer some bespoke advice.
We are grateful to our kind sponsors, PwC and Barclays for hosting these events, plus other generous sponsorship from Deloitte, Mentore, Anglo American and Lloyds Banking Group during the year. To commemorate International Women’s Day, we co-hosted a dinner with Dr Vince Cable and many of the women newly appointed to FTSE 100 boards since 2011. Events such as these build confidence in Chairmen and potential women candidates alike, create valuable connections and do much to dispel the myth that there are insufficient numbers of women willing or capable of stepping up.
