Avance Media Africa has released the 2026 Top 100 Ghana’s Women Board Directors ranking, highlighting 100 distinguished women serving on the boards of leading public and private institutions in Ghana. The ranking, which builds on the inaugural release in 2023, evaluates the women based on criteria such as experience, education, industry expertise, leadership capabilities, and public presence.
The study examined 100 institutions across ten sectors, revealing that while the overall percentage of women on boards has declined slightly from 28% in 2023 to 25.9% in 2026, there has been a significant increase in the number of women serving as Board Chairs, doubling from 10 to 19. Additionally, the number of organisations achieving gender parity (50% women’s representation) has grown from 2 to 9.
The top organisations with strong female representation include the Ghana Stock Exchange, Absa Bank Ghana, Old Mutual Ghana, and MTN Ghana, among others. Prince Akpah, Founder and Managing Director of Avance Media Africa, emphasized the importance of these women leaders in strengthening governance and driving sustainable organizational success.
