The answer is very simple.

Women have strong maternal instinct. Even if woman don't have children, she still have that strong and basic instinct. And the first thing that instinct tell the woman is "do everything for safety, your and your (potential) child".

So, if half of top managers are woman, it is extremely easy to manipulate them using this basic instinct that force any woman to look for safety. So, just say that narrative you push is for safety, and women will support it instinctively.

Yes, some women have enough brains to see manipulation, think independently and have free will to override instincts. But that kind of woman is most hated by all possible colours of feminists and and in no case will be invited to take one of that "diversity" vacancies.

That simple. Put women in charge, and they will do anything you want for the imaginary "safety" you tell them about. It was clearly visible during coronahoax.
