gather information on the representation of women on
corporate boards and to learn about the determinants of
female board membership in these countries. Which skills and
knowledge do women need to possess to become a member of a
board? Do women’s decision-making and leadership styles
differ from those of their male counterparts? Are there are
any impediments for women aspiring to board membership? And
