Challenge: I am so proud of all the progress women in technology have made in the last couple of decades. Our achievements are a testimony to the intellectual prowess of our women colleagues. It is a little disappointing, however, that women typically have a lower representation at the leadership level of technology companies. Technology leadership roles still have a skewed ratio of women to men. One of the biggest challenges to this might be not just the mindset of the women, but that of those around them. Solution: Our women and the people in their support system must develop a mindset as well as the confidence that as they grow in their career, they can still balance other priorities in life, continuously learn and upskill and be on par with the best technologists in the world. Women should also develop the resilience and confidence to not just survive but thrive in the ever-changing technology world. Having this as the foundation can help women break barriers and clichés as they grow in their careers. This will cascade and help change mindsets around them as well. As a result, I am confident we will soon have equal (if not more) representation of women in technology leadership roles. Read More
