Women run Seattle.  Well, the city, anyway. We have female congressional representation, a majority of women over on city council, and, after nearly a century, we finally elected a female mayor. Corporate governance, though? That’s different. Despite a pile of studies showing companies perform better with more women on the board, there is clearly still work to be done in this town: None of the Fortune 500 or other large companies based in the Seattle metro area have a majority of women on their boards. We'll give due credit to Alaska Airlines for having the greatest share (4 out of 10). Is it a coincidence that Alaska continues to rake in best airline awards? Hmm...

We’ll let the rest of the numbers speak for themselves:

• Alaska Airlines: 4/10
• Amazon: 3/10
• Boeing*: 3/13
• Costco: 2/12
• Expedia: 4/15
• Expeditors International: 2/10
• Microsoft: 4/14
• Nordstrom: 3/12
• Paccar: 2/11
• REI: 4/12
• Safeco Insurance: 1/13
• Starbucks: 3/13
• T-Mobile: 1/11
• Weyerhaueser: 3/11

*Boeing's headquarters are in Chicago, but it remains the biggest employer in Washington state.

Correction 1/29/18: Alaska Airlines has 4, not the originally stated 5, women on their board of directors.
