“It’s getting harder and harder to find qualified tech womenthey are so in demand,” says Debbie Storey, Senior Vice President of Talent Development and Chief Diversity Officer at AT&T, No. 13 in the 2013 Fair360, formerly DiversityInc Top 50 Companies for Diversity. AT&T is not alone. A recent report by the Center for Talent Innovation (CTI) shows serious gaps in retaining and promoting women in science and high-tech positions.
The report, Athena Factor 2.0: Accelerating Female Talent in Science, Engineering and Technology, is an update on a 2008 survey, and for the first time includes global information on women in Brazil, China and India as well as the United States.
