NZ Governance Diversity (or not)

This quote from this mornings NZ Herald will probably come as no surprise:

“New Zealand’s most influential and connected directors are made up of a core group of 17 men and women,”

The Herald article covers a recently released report by Effective Governance Ltd covering “Director Network Analysis of New Zealand Organisations.

While the report probably doesn’t provide overly surprising results it is worthwhile quickly reviewing if you are in the governance space. I guess one interesting item to emerge given recent talk about board diversity is that the percentage of female directors actually increases when measured based on the number of boards on which they sit.
