Malcolm Gladwell's concept of the 'magic third' reveals how the presence of three women on a board significantly shifts group dynamics and influence.
Research shows that the dynamic within boards changes when the number of women hits three; they gain a voice and can exert influence as a group.
Gladwell notes that social scientists were surprised by the consistent pattern observed when outsiders reached about a third of the group, causing a collective shift.
The 'magic third' concept illustrates how small numbers can lead to massive shifts in group behavior, impacting decisions and overall dynamics within boards.
