Where are the Women?
summary
An argument that mixes moral and business cases with concrete data: the Financial Times reports 36% board representation and a pledge to reach parity by 2022; network analysis shows decision networks have 14% more same-gender ties and idea-sharing networks 22% more same-gender ties, leaving women less central; a Stack Overflow result finds 30.4% rank diversity lowest priority. Recommended actions are specific: map informal networks, audit hiring funnels and job language, recruit from underrepresented groups, and build real inclusion not just headline quotas.
