This is your Women in Business podcast.

Welcome to Women in Business, where we dive deep into the challenges and triumphs of women navigating today's complex economic landscape. I'm your host, and today we're focusing on the tech industry, where despite progress, women still face significant hurdles.

Ladies, let's talk numbers for a moment. As of 2025, women make up approximately 35% of the tech workforce—a notable improvement from the early 2000s when that figure was just 9%. But we're still far from parity, especially in leadership roles where only about 24% of tech leadership positions are held by women.

Our first discussion point today is what I call "The Representation Roller Coaster." We've seen some concerning trends—women's representation in tech actually dropped by 2.1% during the pandemic before slightly rebounding. What factors are causing these fluctuations, and how can we create more stability for women in the industry?

Second, let's discuss "The Leadership Ladder." With women holding only about a quarter of leadership positions in tech, we need to examine what structural barriers prevent talented women from climbing to the top. Are we seeing improvements in mentorship programs and leadership pipelines in 2025?

Third on our agenda is "The Diversity Within Diversity." Women of color make up 56% of women in tech roles, yet they often face unique challenges that white women don't. How can we ensure our conversations about gender equity in tech are inclusive of all women's experiences?

Fourth, we need to talk about "The Equity Equation." While 75.5% of tech companies report having implemented pay equity policies, women in tech still earn about 84 cents for every dollar men make. What additional measures need to be implemented to close this persistent gap?

Finally, let's explore "The Education Evolution." Organizations like ADVANCE and STEM like a Girl are working to encourage young girls to explore tech from an early age. How can we as business leaders, mentors, and parents support these initiatives to build a stronger pipeline of female tech talent?

The tech landscape is changing rapidly, and with women representing 35% of STEM employees in the US today, we're making progress—but we have so much further to go. The pandemic showed us how fragile gains can be, with women's representation actually declining during those challenging years.

As we navigate 2025 and beyond, let's commit to creating more inclusive workplaces, supporting early education initiatives, developing robust mentorship programs, and advocating for equitable pay and promotion practices. The future of tech needs women's voices, perspectives, and leadership more than ever.

Join us next week as we continue our discussion with industry leaders who are breaking barriers and creating pathways for the next generation of women in tech. Until then, keep innovating, keep disrupting, and keep claiming your seat at the table.
