I have over 15 years experience working in the private sector at an investment bank, much of it working in Mergers & Acquisitions where companies and their leadership were the focus of evaluating companies.
I would hope that whatever information is in the A.T. Kearney report, or anything coming from PricewaterhouseCoopers, that the information is viewed within the framework of the conservative private business sector within which these companies operate. I started skimming these links and it's all pretty typical information for that sector.
Also notable: A.T. Kearney is a consulting firm, and PwC is a financial services company -- both deeply intertwined with the finance sector.
Long way of saying that I would hope that any approach towards innovating the leadership of WMF would NOT come from the world of private multi-national businesses who are often above governmental regulation, a sector where there are few women and a place where profit is the primary concern.
Ideally, the search for WMF leadership would be guided by ethics, innovation, regard for fellow humans, etc. Versus the approaches most of the businesses evaluated in the report, etc. are utilizing.
My unasked for 2 cents, but there you go.
