Measuring Progress In Gender Equity & Equality In Corporate Malaysia

Despite comprising roughly half of Malaysia's labour population, women make up a small fraction of seats on corporate boards and as heads of publicly listed companies. Has progress in gender representation in the corporate world stalled or even regressed? We discuss the present scenario and efforts to increase women's participation at the highest levels with our panel of experts. Image credit: Shutterstock.com
