March 8 is celebrated around the world as International Women’s Day and in the U.S., the month celebrates Women’s History Month, a tradition dating back to 1911.
Many women have helped the world advance, from Sappho who was regarded by Plato as one of the great 10 poets, Joan of Arc who inspired a French revolution against English occupation, Florence Nightingale who changed the role and perception of the nursing profession, Marie Curie who was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, Rosa Parks’ action that led the most significant civil rights rights legislation in American history, Margaret Thatcher who was the first female Prime Minister of Great Britain and many others who have used their knowledge and skills to make the world a better place for all.
Yet the tech sector is still a man’s world, even as women have proven over the years they can hang with the big boys, some running corporations dominated by men. The feat didn’t come without its obstacles, some of which women deal with in current settings.
During last year’s Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing celebration, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella got an earful from women disturbed by his seemingly sexist comments regarding equal pay in the workplace. For Nadella, such matters will work themselves out. The insensitive comments were made during Satya’s on-stage interview during the Grace Hopper event, with host Maria Klawe. The president of Harvey Mudd College, Klawe spoke to SiliconANGLE just moments after her headline-making interview with Nadella, who took the software CEO’s comments in stride
