In
today’s world, Diversity in Boardrooms is much debated topic in Corporate
Governance arena. Empowering women to take leadership positions is important for
economic growth. There is a clear business case for greater gender diversity in
corporate boards both from the micro economic perspective – i.e. in terms of
individual companies’ performance– as well as from a macroeconomic
perspective – i.e. in terms of higher, sustainable rates of economic growth.
