Top firms taking ‘one and done’ approach by appointing a token woman to their board, review chief says
Some of the UK’s top firms are taking a “one and done” approach to gender diversity by appointing a token woman to their board, a Government-backed review has found. A small number of FTSE companies are “intentionally blocking progress”, according to Denise Wilson White, chief executive of the Hampton-Alexander review which was set up by Theresa May 2016 to close the gender gap at the top of business.
