The Executive Board: Women performance in Boardrooms

Women are slowly gaining their space in the Boardrooms here in Kenya, an area still dominated by men. In the Boardrooms one needs to be elected or appointed, a game that locks out most qualified women owing to numbers. However, according to CPA Perpetua Marigi Bulemi, CEO of Association of Women Accountants of Kenya, AWAK, continuous training, mentoring and courage work magic for those who are seeking to climb the ladder. Women Empowerment is the focus on the Executive Board.
