As Chap. 4 outlines, female boardroom aspirants are typically more poorly networked with important power brokers in the board-level recruitment and selection process than are their male peers. This is significantly to their disadvantage in gaining a board-level role, given (as Chap. 5 demonstrates) the importance of being well-networked at every stage of the process.
