Women on Boards: Sharing a Rigorous Vision of the Functioning of Boards, Demanding a New Model of Corporate Governance

 
The study offers both an analysis of the state to understand gender diversity on Boards and paradigm shifts in the governance of Boards offered by an increased representation of women on Boards.
It also endeavours to uncover some of the reasons behind the lack of progress over the past 50 years, looking at both the individual and societal obstacles pertinent to those women who desire such mandates. Then it evaluates the best measures being proposed internationally in order to overcome said obstacles.
