Women in Tech - Time to close the gender gap

Despite decades of progress towards workplace equality, women remain woefully under­represented in the UK’s technology workforce. The figures speak for themselves: according to the Women’s Engineering Society (WES)1, just 15% of the people working in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) roles across the UK are female – and only 5% of leadership positions in the technology industry are held by women.

STEM Graduates and Secondary School Curriculum: Does Early Exposure to Science Matter?

Increasing the number of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) university graduates is considered a key element for long-term productivity and competitiveness in the global economy. Still, little is known about what actually drives and shapes students' choices. This paper focusses on secondary school students at the very top of the ability distribution and explores the effect of more exposure to science on enrolment and persistence in STEM degrees at the university and on the quality of the university attended.

Gender Diversity on European Boards - Realizing Europe‘s Potential: Progress and Challenges

The study focuses on a key segment of the European economy: the 600 largest European-listed companies, which together comprise the STOXX Europe 600 Index. This elite group of large European corporations includes many of our continent’s most recognisable business names.

Does corporate gender equality lead to outperformance?

Gender equality from a corporate perspective encompasses issues of workforce diversity as well as equal pay and career opportunities. Analysis of a unique gender based dataset collected by RobecoSAM and based on criteria identified in collaboration with the EDGE Certified Foundation confirms that there is inequality across all industries in terms of gender representation, pay and promotion. Our work is consistent with the growing body of academic research that finds that gender diversity and equality contribute to better corporate performance and investment returns. Rachel Whittaker

Women are underrepresented in fields where success is believed to require brilliance

Women's underrepresentation in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields is a prominent concern in our society and many others. Closer inspection of this phenomenon reveals a more nuanced picture, however, with women achieving parity with men at the Ph.D. level in certain STEM fields, while also being underrepresented in some non-STEM fields. It is important to consider and provide an account of this field-by-field variability. Leslie, Sarah-Jane; Cimpian, Andrei; Meyer, Meredith

Is Gender Diversity Profitable? Evidence from a Global Survey

Analysis of a global survey of 21,980 firms from 91 countries suggests that the presence of women in corporate leadership positions may improve firm performance. This correlation could reflect either the payoff to nondiscrimination or the fact that women increase a firm’s skill diversity. Marcus Noland, Tyler Moran, Barbara Kotschwar

Promising Practices for Addressing the Underrepresentation of Women in Science, Engineering, and Medicine: Opening Doors

Die vorliegende Studie zeigt die relevanten Handlungs­felder zur Förderung der Gleich­behandlung der Geschlechter in Forschungs­einrichtungen auf. Die vier wichtigsten Schluss­folgerungen lauten: ein komplexes Phänomen kann nur durch systematisches Vorgehen verändert werden. Das verlangt Transparenz und Verantwortungs­zuweisung, eine evidenzbasierte Entwicklung von Strategien und Maßnahmen, die verpflichtend umgesetzt und regelmäßig überprüft werden müssen.
