Lotte Mejlhede/TV2 and spokesperson for the K2 network hands the K2 award to Kenneth Plummer/DR
Surrounded by women on a daily basis, from his children and wife to his mother in law. Not to mention the women in the company. This is the main qualification and inspiration for Kenneth Plummer, Director General of the public Danish Broadcasting Corporation/DR, to promote female managers in the company, and ultimately achieving the prestigious award from the Danish network for female managers in the media industry, K2. Here's my paradoxical question: haven't male managers always been surrounded by women? Nevertheless today, with Kenneth Plummer in charge, DR has achieved a level of 30 percent female managers in the top three layers of the company. Unique figures compared to the industry as a whole. The Danish newspaper Politiken received the reprimand of 2008 for only having two female managers out of fiften in all.

The minister referred to the charter for gender equality, designed to promote more women in management. So far the charter has been signed by 43 public and private companies. Apparently not many managers feel surrounded by women. Let's help them!
