Gender Diversity on Supervisory Boards: Research Results

In light of the shortage of qualified personnel—particularly at the executive level—in the labor market, the urgency to attract talent with diverse backgrounds and experiences is growing. Ukrainian society needs to become more open to diversity and actively foster inclusion. Although women represent a vital part of human capital, their creativity, intellect, and leadership potential remain largely underutilized.

The research aims to raise awareness among business leaders and public officials about the role of women on supervisory boards as key contributors to economic progress, and to encourage positive changes in their representation and active participation in corporate governance.

The research involved 66 members of supervisory boards—both local and international—representing 54 unique Ukrainian private and state-owned companies, NGOs, and public institutions. Both qualitative and quantitative methods were used to prepare the report, including a digital survey and interviews.
