THIS WEEK'S QUESTION:
A September report from the Massachusetts Biotechnology Council said although men and women are entering the life sciences sector in equal proportion, the gender gap in the industry grows at all career stages, with women comprising 24 percent of C-suite positions and 14 percent of board seats.
Should life sciences companies do more to promote women into executive positions?
No. There are already equal opportunity laws on the books and the best person gets the job.
No. The situation will resolve itself in a few years as more women are entering the field.
Yes. Companies should interview at least one female candidate for every executive opening.
Yes. Firms should have a gender mix in executive positions similar to the mix for their entire workforce.
