The European Union's new "Women on Boards" directive marks a significant step towards enhancing gender balance in corporate leadership. By mandating transparency in recruitment and setting minimum female representation targets for listed companies, the directive aims to address gender disparities in boardrooms. Member states are required to implement these changes by December 2024, with companies expected to meet the targets by June 2026. As businesses globally strive for diversity and inclusion, the EU's directive serves as a model for fostering equitable leadership structures, promoting a more balanced and inclusive corporate environment.
