👀 Under hver femte generalforsamlingsvalgte bestyrelsesmedlem er kvinde. Ny analyse fra DI - Dansk Industri viser, at 18,6% af bestyrelsesmedlemmer er kvinder. Dette er på trods af, at halvdelen af talentpuljen er kvinder. Tallene for sammensætning i bestyrelseslokalet 2024 er klare: 📊 Kun 18,6 % af de generalforsamlingsvalgte bestyrelsesposter er besat af kvinder. 📊 Blot 10,9 % af bestyrelseslederne er kvinder. 📊 Næsten halvdelen af danske virksomheder har ingen kvinder i bestyrelsen. 📊 Til sammenligning er det kun 0,2 % af virksomhederne, der ikke har en mand i bestyrelsen. Undersøgelsen viser, at der fortsat ligger et stort arbejde forude med at øge kønsbalancen i toppen af danske virksomheder. Ønsker I nye bestyrelsesmedlemmer uden for det vanlige netværk?
