Boards of directors or indeed any job should have the best person for the job regardless of gender. If that means they don't balance the gender quota so what? Diversity hires can potentially lower standards.

Yes! The government should be doing way more to ensure fairness, equality and diversity in all workplaces

Is this really even a question? If they are qualified, yes obviously. Why do u care what’s between there legs or on there chest.

I don’t think it should be mandated but when it isn’t mandated it’s less likely to happen. I’d love for it to be improved long term while also looking at companies that don’t have women on their board and see why etc

 @9ZL6BT7answered…1mo1MO

There should be more diversity but the requirement of diversity poses the risk of it being performative rather than sincere integration and thus limits the actual diversity

 @9ZH9GDKanswered…1mo1MO

No, but the government need to take responsibility for the reasons behind why women aren't being considered equally for positions on the board

 @9ZGNGYBanswered…1mo1MO

Yes but only if it makes sense. appointing someone based on gender is not fair, people should be appointed based on skills and experience

 @9ZGNCP5answered…1mo1MO

business should have the most suitable members on its board, if that happens to be a woman they should not be bypassed simply because of their sex
