If nothing is done to change it, new data from the Chief Executive Women Census shows will take about 100 years for corporate Australia to have at least 40 per cent women in CEO positions on the ASX300.

"We saw at the summit a greater interest by the government, by the Minister for Women, and the Treasurer about the consequences for those companies that continue to not give equal opportunities to women in their organisations," Ms Mostyn said.

"And then conversely, most of the high-paying, career-secure, really good jobs are, predominantly, filled by men." "All of those low paid roles … need to go through the process of adjustment so that they become well paid, respected, secure, decent jobs and so that they're not just seen as women's work," Ms Mostyn said.

The absolute state of Australian journalism

Should have just finished that sentence at Anglo-Saxon. White women are still white right?

FYI - Anglo-Saxons lost out to the Normans. Not sure why they think it is Anglo-Saxon. The Anglo-Saxon Kingdoms fell a long time ago. The seed of the royals come from Salic Franks, the blood line from Ashkenazis.

Please look at the number of people of Indian background running the biggest companies in the world. Should asians or Anglo Saxon’s displace them by mandate? Of course not. Meritocracy forever

You first then, David Anderson

Too many white people in Australia for you Naseem Khadem? You know the solution…

ABC hiring policy. Must find miserable envious unhappy women.

Yeah, cause most women won't wanna have kids. Climate change putting them off is it, lol

Who knows what the world will be like a century from now!

And ?

Problem with Anglo-Saxon males business reporter Nassim Khadem?

The great irony is the pic has three white blondes That's their idea of diversity

Stupid ABC pushing for socialism in business Because business is about money, not having the 'right inclusive mix' of execs

well I guess women should start more of their own companies?

Give it a rest

Who cares

So much for all that rubbish talked by so called new feminists about “Male champions for change” What a joke! They should hang their heads in shame.

It’s like you’re describing how hard it is to remove mold from bathroom tiles.

Would that be the companies built by white Anglo-Saxon men?

No one cares. Stop being racist.

Why do they have to be headed by women?

Who complies these statistics. My mum was a regularly in the board room of LJ Hooker throughout the 80’s. She was often complimented on the meals she prepared and her coffee making skills.

Soooo you pair that story with a picture of 3 Anglo Saxon women…

Just go by capability. Simple

. . And there is nothing wrong with that in itself. It is a reflection of societal values. Mums still look after babies. They do. They want to. It is normal in nearly every society on Earth. And it holds back their careers. It does. And why wouldn't it? It's a choice.

Sick of yr racist 💩

We’ve being doing this management by numbers for nearly two decades with small gains, perhaps the approach of playing off the genders and troping isn’t working. Let’s remove personal identifiers from all employee systems and employee procedures and see what happens.

Weird photo on an article about diversity

FFS! Gender politics at taxpayers expense.

'so that more women would be available to go back into employment' That's right. Everyone knows that looking after your children in those crucial formative years only becomes 'employment' when it's performed by someone else. Being a CEO is much more important.

I’m sure our way of life will collapse by than anyway

Why is this even a headline ? Why are we pushing females for everything on the planet. The best person for the job is what should be the priority! What do you think a young white boy thinks today. He has no chance !

I’m honestly appalled at the ABC, they are not being inclusive, gender is a social construct, where is the representation of sub Saharan, Down syndrome handicapable First Nations San tribes xe/Xems? Leading our most successful companies

Competency and capability are the priority measures. What ya look like, where ya from or which bloody footy team ya support are less relevant.

Well one thing is certain - they won’t be headed by Hollywood actresses.

Anglo-Saxon men are a minority so they need our support...

Migrants come to Australia, then they should cancel white people and history according to ABC and SBS ?

iChat makes people think a woman would be a better CEO than a male. Just being a woman is not enough of a qualification.

ABC is totally opposed to merit for the obvious reason.

It seems it will be two hundred years before non blondes get a go.

More white women with power. That's totally what the world needs 🙃

To be replaced with Anglo-Saxon women? Couldn’t find a better photo, it’s relevant to the story intrinsically (subliminal) or just more lazy journalistic marketing…? Ffs, do better, way better… 🤦🏼‍♂️ auspol

Oh god. Just defund this sh*t now. Honestly, a waste of money.

I'd like the ABC to report about the lack of diversity in teaching, netball and nursing.

So they put 3 anglo women So no white women can be racist Right So that women that accused me of been racist won because my patriarchy and it wasn't her precious white privilige Wake the f..k up even white women are freaking racist

Getting tired of the gender talk fest !

I,m a white anglo saxon male and I resent your constant criticism Aunty ABC, you are a drop dead crap organisation, and I resent my tax dollars going to you.

This articles about gender but yet they click bait it about race?

Is there any particular reason this is an aim? Sounds awfully racist and sexist. Didn't they make the companies, invent the products that these corporations were built on? I'll just tell my sons not to bother trying, shall I?

What even is an 'Anglo Saxon' what an outdated irrelevant term. Does anyone indentify as an Anglo Saxon? Hi I'm Barry I'm an Anglo Saxon kindly point me in the direction of Normandy where's my ye old helmet.

Make no difference. Profit first and people last. Don't fall for the jargon.

How about we appoint the best people for jobs. Meritocracy.

The selection of a CEO should never be a gender based decision, it must be based ONLY on the ability and suitability of the applicant. To appoint a CEO based on gender is WOKE!

Wtf is wrong with abc, never happy!!

And the point is what exactly ?

What’s wrong with Anglo Saxon men? Just report actual news.

Competency, not gender 🤦‍♂️

And how many centuries before companies are headed by ppl who represent the normal demographic instead of blond Anglo-Saxon women with model body type?

lol. I will take longer than that for the ABC to produce decent content.

Maybe women need to stop sitting around at mums & bubs groups and going out shopping spending all their husband's money. Go get business degrees and get back to work.

Who cares as long as they do their Fck job.

They aren't doing a crash hot job of running countries

‘Anglo-Saxon Male’. Just insert ‘old’ and ‘heterosexual’ and you’d have the full description of folks the ABC are allergic to.

So in a century jobs will be allocated based on sexism and racism then.

So the goal is for them to be headed by Barbie? You really don’t understand diversity, do you? 🤦🏻‍♀️

lmao “Anglo-Saxon”? I guess you didn’t want to say white? is it ok if the men are catholic mediterraneans?

They should be running them.. They built them ABC.

We'll get to school. They are there for you.

Your top exec is a bloke!

What is so great about being on a board of a large corporation? Women should be endeavouring to be entrepreneurs and not aspire ro end up like some ABC boomer feminist.

Let's begin with the Qantas board

I demand greater representation of old Scandinavian men as CEOs. The discrimination is repugnant and legislation is urgently needed.

These top companies were also started by Anglo Saxon men.

How do you know they’re all descended from the Angles and the Saxons?

Can you stop the racial profiling in your articles please.

By the time women are running companies they’ll be the next evil. There’s always some other minority worse off.

Don’t like Anglo Saxon men running companies. You could always opt out for Muslim men?! Then you’ll never ever get anywhere.

But by blonde Anglo Saxon women

Defund the ABC

Take a look at our population and ask yourself why. What a puerile story.

White Anglo Saxon males do not enhance Australia’s international reputation?

Oh dear. That photo. Do better.

300 people out of 25million are CEOs of an ASX 300 company. About 1 in 100,00. So if men made up all of these positions I’d have a 1 in 50,000 chance of being one of them… how privileged am I!

Why is the taxpayer funding this garbage?

Of Australia's richest men, how many are jewish?

Do you think they’ll pay their fair share of tax under female leadership? We should be following a Norway, with a 78% tax on their north sea oil income. Only the Greens don’t accept donations from fossil fuel companies.

What if women are not suitably qualified or do not want this particular role? Do we still need to get rid of the Anglo-Saxon men?

Let's not forget the male patriarchy that stops women becoming septic tank cleaners & their allies in the roof tiling and bricklaying oligarchies.

Ignorant of history. Half of the UK is actually Celtic. Or a mix of Angles, Saxons. Vikings, Celts, and so on. You mean 'white' don't you. Meanwhile every single doctor at my local hospital looks Indian or Chinese. But, racism, huh?

Job is based on credentials for whoever wants it. Most men don't even want these stressful jobs, and men (broadly speaking in comparison to women) are more assertive and less agreeable, more stress inclined and less family oriented (in these cases).

At the rate we are currently seeing, it could take less than a century before every woman has a penis🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Defund the ABC. Always being divisive and discriminatory towards various sections of the community.

These entitled feminist writers should be grateful to “Anglo Saxon” men and men of all colours for making this country one of the wealthiest on the planet. These women enjoy their privilege and wealth while bleating against the very men who provided it. Feminism is cancer.

Very few women are prepared to work the excessive hours necessary over decades to work their way up to CEO of a big corporation. Feminists think women should just be handed these jobs without the apprenticeship.

White men, white women, same thing.

A clever reference to avoid using ‘white’. We doubt it will take anywhere near a century for Anglo-Saxon women (as depicted by the ABC) and women of any origin to establish new and exciting ventures in the corporate world. Women are already prominent in executive positions.

Gotta love the racism here keep it

The ABC using race baiting and class warfare to promote division.

doesnt mean a thing as they all after screwing the lower paid workers to get maximum profit that goes into their pockets

and then another century before they are not headed by Anglo Saxon women.

Why do they look the same?

And then the next 100 years will be Anglo Saxon women. 😁😁😁

Racist and sexist. Well done ABC.

Defund the abc as they have lost the plot

Jobs are given to those who meet the criteria of the job not based on gender

We aren’t waiting ! We are coming with pitchforks

There needs to be a name for the mental illness where you pathologically hate white people and seethe with resentment for them.

How about we get rid of big companies instead?

It could take longer until NBA teams and sprinters are mostly white and swim teams mainly black.

Are these all the same woman?

Why are they all Anglo women?

Is this an issue in China, Japan, Malaysia, Pakistan, India, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Kuwait, Nigeria, Egypt.... No, I wonder why, maybe it has something to do with the racial demographics of countries...🤔

Weird graffic to use. Not even remotely related to the topic.

ABC staff would legit be happy if all Anglo-Saxon men in Australia were 2nd class citizens, or serfs... or slaves.

So we are going from Anglo saxon men to Anglo saxon women what about all the colurs of men and Women in between? Amazing White policy reinforcement this is.

Let’s start with the ABC Board.

How many 'Anglo-Saxon' men are employed at ABC?

More ABC feminist gobbledygook.

The Jutes don’t even get a look-in anymore…

The great replacement auspol

'we want it now, but without the work involved'

My taxes paying for this rubbish.

Black people after reading the report

So Anglo-Saxon women are better?

Three Karens having to wait in line without insisting on talking to the manager. Good luck.

100 years ago you couldn't vote. Baby steps
