Stanford and VMware invest $15 million to fight tech’s gender bias problem
Hollywood’s #MeToo movement has created global awareness around predatory behavior toward women in the film industry and exposed a number of high-profile offenders, sparking a wider conversation around stark inequities in workplaces around the nation. While the obstacles and biases women face in academia and professionally are far from news, the momentum of this equality moment has created a shift in the discourse around inclusion in every industry.
“This has been going on as long as women have been in the workplace, but … we’ve got the world’s attention now,” said Shelley Correll (pictured), professor of sociology at Standford University, Barbara D. Fineberg director of the Clayman Institute for Gender Research at Stanford, and founder and director of the Stanford VMware Women’s Leadership Innovation Lab. “Let’s use … it is an opening that allows us to take the “me too” … moment … and turn it into a movement that produces sustainable change.”
Correll recently spoke with Lisa Martin (@LuccaZara), host of theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s mobile livestreaming studio, during the Women Transforming Technology event in Palo Alto, California. (* Disclosure below.)
In an effort to collapse the old systems holding back women in the tech industry, Correll is championing The Women’s Leadership Innovation Lab, a Stanford-funded VMware Inc. initiative created to research and take action against the longstanding barriers to women’s advancement. Betsy Sutter, senior vice president and chief people officer of VMware, and Alaina Percival, chief executive officer of Women Who Code, also sat down with Martin during the Women Transforming Technology event to discuss the initiative and the state of women in the industry at large.
This week, theCUBE spotlights Shelley Correll, Betsy Sutter and Alaina Percival in our Women in Tech feature.
