The Women Tech Council (WTC) has released the 2021 Shatter List during Women’s History Month.
The organisation focused on increasing the number of women in technology has listed the names of firms that are accelerating removing the glass ceiling for women in tech. These companies are also recognised for measures that are supporting women in tech through the female recession.
This year’s Shatter List comes in the midst of the first female recession brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. By moving beyond HR and hiring measures, the list reviews and rates the development and successful implementation of company-wide practices to create inclusive cultures where women can contribute and succeed.
“While the vaccine will help immunise us against Covid-19, there is no immunization against this recession,” stated Cydni Tetro, President of WTC. “Just like these companies, leaders and professionals at every level need to be in action for women by creating the leadership styles, working environments and company policies that give women the support to excel, and consequently propel the growth of our entire technology ecosystem.”
SHATTER LIST CREDENTIALS
The 2021 Shatter List was compiled using data from more than 10 different sources that demonstrated work and impact in the four areas most critical to breaking the glass ceiling for women in tech. Each factor relates to demonstrable and visible programming, activities and commitment that advance women in tech from entry-level positions to executive roles.
The four evaluation areas include:
- Executive engagement (active support from all leadership, especially the executive team and CEO).
- Company programming (proactively implement programs to support women and currently has women in leadership and executive roles).
- Community investment (active participation with the broader community to share and learn best practices for inclusion and culture).
- Women’s or Diversity & Inclusion group (internal, formal programs that support women).
