This depends on the type of business and whether or not their are women actually working in the business. If they are, then yes, having female representation on boards is important.
@9F9G9LW2yrs2Y
If they are qualified to be there of course - same for men
@9F4PYW32yrs2Y
No, nor should men be required on board of directors of businesses made by women. How you run your business should be your choice alone.
@9DVBLND 2yrs2Y
Govt should incentivise and encourage diversity but I don’t support mandates
@9DGG5K52yrs2Y
No I feel this undermines women and fuels the equality issue.
@B5BSLBV1wk1W
Only hire the most qualified candidates (this should include personality too - open mindedness). Aim to hire for diversity but do not discriminate and specifically hire based on sex etc
@B3GFD4M3mos3MO
They should appoint who is most qualified. often now-days men are seen as more qualified which is what needs to change
@9GRDB222yrs2Y
No, but businesses should strongly consider it, and it would limit my desire to invest if an organization did not.
