Addressing Cultural and Policy Challenges in Tech: How We Can Help
Identifying the Problem
Businesses often overlook cultural and policy issues that significantly impact women in tech. Policies like mandatory in-office work and inadequate maternity return support are prime examples of how organisational practices can disadvantage women, leading to their departure from the tech industry. In addition, prevalent issues such as bias, discrimination, and the lack of proactive progression opportunities further exacerbate the situation.
Our Solution
At the Women in Tech Coterie, we offer a comprehensive approach to tackle these challenges:
We conduct discreet, anonymous assessments of your company's culture and environment. As a neutral external party, we enable candid feedback from women about their experiences in your organisation. This insight is crucial in identifying and addressing underlying issues.
Understanding the direct link between HR practices, company culture, and gender equality is vital. We work closely with HR teams to ensure the implementation of best practices that promote equality. This includes training and development of line managers in people management and adherence to the Equality Act.
Beyond assessments and collaborations, we focus on nurturing talent within your organisation. Our tailored programs and support systems are designed to help women in tech grow and succeed, aligning their career progression with your business goals.
Our services are not just about identifying problems; they're about creating sustainable solutions that foster a supportive and equitable workplace. By partnering with us, your business can make meaningful changes that not only retain female talent in tech but also enhance your overall organisational culture and performance.
