China well ahead of global average in smashing dominance of male-only senior exec teams
China has made huge strides in cracking down on what until recently was seen as very much an “all boys’ club” at the top levels of corporate management, according to fresh figures published on Thursday by accounting and consulting firm Grant Thornton to coincide with International Women’s Day. They show 88% of Chinese mainland firms now have at least one woman on their senior management teams – considerably ahead of the global average of 75 per cent, and an 11-percentage-point improvement in the past 12 months. (The figures have been tracked annually by Grant Thornton since 1992, which this year polled 4,995 businesses in 35 countries).
In total, 31 per cent of senior positions in China are held by women, unchanged from last year, but again that tops the rest of Asia-Pacific, which has an average 23 per cent of senior posts filled by the fairer sex.
