A Board with No Women Is a Sign That You’re Not Making Good Decisions
- planetzero 7y agoIt's not really a sign of anything. Decisions should be made on who is best for the job, not gender or skin color. Forcing diversity (which lets be honest..an entire board of women is not 'diverse') only proves that a specific gender or minority can't get the job on their own.
