The share of female board directors in California grew from 14.6 percent in 2018 to 32.1 percent by the end of last year. In the United States as a whole during the same period, on the other hand, the share of women on boards at companies in the Russell 3000, which tracks the 3,000 largest public companies, moved from 17.7 percent to 25.6 percent. “California started at less than the average and now they’re way more,” Greene noted.
U.S. counties where people are more likely to vote and engage in professional and social associations tend to have more women on the boards of local corporations, according to our new peer-reviewed study. Moreover, we found that women in these communities are more likely to be appointed as chairs of influential board committees.
