Men control 80-90% of tech leadership roles, making them crucial to closing the gender pay gap. A recent study highlights the wage disparity, revealing that mid-senior-level women saw no real wage growth from 2016-2021. To drive change, men must leverage their influence to sponsor and advance women in tech. Discover how the Toast Champions Program is making strides towards gender equity with this recent article by Toast co-founder, Marissa McNeelands: https://lnkd.in/gAvnRJuc #GenderPayGap #WomenInTech #Leadership #DiversityInTech The Insight Forum (IF) is designed to empower Canadian innovators and thought leaders, offering a unique opportunity for professionals to share their expertise and insights.
