Opinion piece by Joycelynne Scutt "Mentoring is in the news. Businesswomen say nothing will change in top levels of management without it. Women need mentoring to gain board appointments, to become government department heads and CEOs, to succeed at any higher post. Now, with mentoring such a byword, even businesses are told that their boards are obsolete, that they require mentors instead. In that scenario, boards are out. Mentors are in".

These are the findings revealed in 'Long Way to the Top' a White Paper authored by Melbourne financial planner, Charmaine Curtain from Global Partnerships Financial Consulting.

LILIANE Bettencourt, heiress to L'Oreal and the world's second-richest woman, savoured her return to grace after a year of torment as she was re-elected last night to the board of the French cosmetics giant founded by her father. Ok, so talking about gender on boards...should we also be looking at age? Is 89 too old to be re-introduced back to the boardroom? They may have age and experience but really, do they have anything left to give?
