Abstract

The main objective of this research is to present the concept of diversity, taking into account the most relevant studies in the field. Considering the fact that gender diversity proved to be a smart strategy business that increasingly more companies are beginning to prioritize to generate higher returns, we will examine the gender diversity in banks' boards of directors to identify the impact on performance. Thus, through this research, the authors aim to provide answers to the question: Can the top component of the management of an organization (especially in the banking system) affect performance and financial results? The research methodology used is mainly qualitative, identifying cause-effect connections and differences between women and men in terms of top management. Although progress has been made over time, inequity between women and men still persists, including in the labour market. On average, women from the European Union are being paid less than men.
