And I'm afraid the people at the very top are (on average) the more conservative, so it's a long, uphill battle. Giving a bunch of women a cushy job isn't going to achieve that goal. Chances of it backfiring are real, too: one foobar and the mindset is back again, rooted firmly in evidence this time. For comparison: look what a black president has done against racism in the USA. OTOH, I don't believe putting women on a board of directors is going to make companies perform worse. So many seats are taken by mediocre bootlickers. But I still think it's not going to help women in general.
