2009 Women Getting into Boards Survey

HTMLWomen Getting into Boards Survey

14 May 2009Why are women not being selected for board appointments? How can women, if they choose to develop their leadership aspirations through directorships, prepare themselves and gain entry into these positions? What is not happening for this inequity to be overturned?

I am inviting women  to fill out CLW's Women Getting into Boards Survey which aims to explore the problems women experience getting into Boards on public and private organisations and the resources needed to enable women to succeed in attaining board positions.

Please encourage other women you know to also participate in this Survey which is available in CLW's non-member's section at the link below.

The Survey will close on 12 August 2009 and the evaluated results will form a Report that will be available freely through CLW and will be used to lobby relevant organisations to listen to the issues that emerge and note useful strategies for overturning the situation.
