How new is the new breed of leader (Analysis, THES , May 18)? In your list of 36 new and old v-cs, I noticed not a single female name, nor much to suggest the presence of some non-Anglo-Saxon blood. Is it not time we saw manifestations of the commitment to equal opportunities in the choice of leaders?
