I think more women are taking the step on their own. I think it also depends on whether you're talking about arts leadership, as in artistic directors and executive directors, or if you're talking about arts boards. For boards, I think the financial aspect is important, because people need to or are expected to have money and do need to have time to allocate to being board members.
In terms of arts leadership, I think policies to encourage more women in the higher levels....There are a lot of women involved in the arts, but there's not the same progression that would result in more people being at the top level. I think that's where policies could be effected, particularly for arts organizations that are provided with funding from various levels of government. If those funders could use that as the carrot and make it clear in the expectations that they're looking for transparency and ask for the statistics on who's involved and at what levels, I think that would help.
