Session: Women and Leadership: Barriers and Biasеs
Leadership is not a job title, it’s a choice.Leading a team requires a lot of tweaking, processes establishment, course correcting, and initiative. Even though the percentage of women in the talent pipeline has steadily increased over the last 3 decades, there are still large gender gaps from entry-level through to top-executive positions. In tech, women hold only 30% of the entry-level roles and approximately 7% of major leadership positions (in the US and Europe).
What it costs to be a woman leader and mentoring others, while overcoming adversities in the IT field? The leadership gender gap is persistent and pervasive, but solvable.
Find out more about the steps we can take as individuals, employers, and policy makers to create significant change.
