To celebrate International Women’s Day, the Myanmar Institute of Directors (MIOD) and AMCHAM Myanmar jointly hosted a Breakfast Talk focusing on the role of women in corporate governance.
In the beginning, the concept of corporate governance was introduced, and its positive influence on professionalism inside companies and organizations elaborated. The panel then stressed the importance of including women in leading positions in companies, not based on their gender, but based on productivity potential that is not utilized in an unbalanced workforce or board composition. Further, the importance of mentorship for upcoming leaders and future board members was discussed, for example, providing more opportunities to sit-in board meetings and observe how formal procedures are executed and decisions are made.
MIoD would thank the panelists and all event attendees for sharing their knowledge and experiences.
