Irene Natividad's latest article on Women on Corporate Boards
|
"There is no denying the effectiveness of quotas"
|
Why Europe will surpass the U.S. in changing the face of the corporate board.
"For the American business community, "quota" is a dirty word. When applied to human resources, it implies a set number required without consideration of merit. Well, Europe is not running away from this word, and it is a strategy many of its countries are using to accelerate the pace of achieving a diverse board".
