Women are no longer at risk of missing out the most promising jobs
“Digitalization has brought empowerment to the entire world, particularly to women. Women are gifted with superior social skills and when social skills are complemented with advanced digital literacy, which is one of the core requirements of digital age, it works well. Big data, artificial intelligence, advanced computing methods etc. have improved female presence in economic life by eliminating the need for any physical mobility. So, to summarize it in two points, one is that there is an unparalleled inclusion of women in the Indian economy, boosted by technology platforms and secondly women are increasingly pushing the boundaries of technology development.
Ample opportunities for women in STEM space (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) exist and women are no longer at risk of missing out on the most promising jobs of the digital age. We are also at 50:50 gender parity rate in STEM graduates and at 35% in the IT workforce, which is far higher considering US and Europe that are at 25% and 18% respectively. Technological solutions to manage flexibility of the hybrid workplace is becoming equally imperative and organizations are investing on this heavily. Crafting a new work culture adapting to the new hybrid model that redefines expectations, building stronger connect mechanisms and having stronger performance management mechanisms are evolving. Every day is a learning and I too am adapting to the changing times.”
