Women face barriers like workplace gender bias and shortage of female role models
Rimi Das, Head Of Marketing, India Region - Pure Storage
“A gender-diverse workforce allows the company to serve an increasingly diverse customer base. Gender diversity helps companies attract and retain talented women but it also depends on societal, organizational and individual factors so I do agree with the statement that despite growing awareness of increasing gender diversity in tech, just one-third of Indian enterprises have programs in place with the goal of elevating more women to leadership roles.
Income inequality compared to male colleagues, workplace gender bias and a shortage of female role models are among the main barriers faced by women working in the tech industry. And lack of role models can also lead to a feeling of isolation and discouragement.
The hybrid work culture did give an amazing opportunity to connect to people virtually, probably with more possibilities of learning at a mutually convenient time, also it helped in building better collaborations and relationships.”
